X. Benedict Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 Well, he did want to pay, so at least the guy was no bandito. 534083[/snapback] But if he was, would he have commited Grand Theft Nachos, or Theft Nachos Grande?
Alaska Darin Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 It annoys the crap out of me that stores refuse to take currency that is "Legal For All Debts, Public and Private".

This guy must have needed a drink, and I bet that is exactly what happened, he was trying to be polite by buying something so he had change to go back to the bar. I have done this myself (successfully w/o the gun of course, or DWI arrest)
Gavin in Va Beach Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I wouldn't do that for the regular nacho cheese kind, but if the clerk refused to sell me some Cool Ranch then I might just have to shoot the place up...

I don't think that they stay open later than they do in Erie county, which is about 0400... Right? This incident happened at 0515. :lol:

Sure it is legal. Just because it says it is legal, doesn't mean somebody has to take it. Maybe they keep less change available for security reasons... Slidding the bulk of the money into an unlockable (at that hour) safe. What would happen if everybody started bringing in large bills... I am sure your supply of cash for change would be depleted. It is okay to set a policy about how much cash should be in the drawer... Dependent on store, location, hour of business, etc... If you can't "break" the note... Then you can't accept the note. They aren't refusing the sale. They are refusing to "break" the note.
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 (edited) You're right. 5:15 AM. to me. 534187[/snapback] That "Frito Bandito" with the assualt weapon was a real stroke. What did he expect, that he was gonna kick, scream, and whine while he bandies about an assault weapon saying: "You gotta cash my C-note!" Actually, he said nothing... Even worse. Again, what a stroke. Edited December 16, 2005 by ExiledInIllinois
