We throw all our change in a jar. It adds up quick. At vacation time we take it down to the change machine at the store and get bills. (They do charge a percentage, but it's vacation time so I can be lazy if I want.)

Accepting change for payments doesn't really bother me unless it happens at a busy time or close to shift change. Then, yes, I will get pissy if a customer foists change off on me at those times.
I've even refused sales before just out of spite when it wasn't for gas that was already pumped, and I just didn't feel like dealing with several dollars worth of unrolled, unorganized change that looked like it had been scraped from the bottom of a barrell. I also generally decline to buy change from someone who just wants to cash in change without making a purchase unless the customer is a regular who I like.
Nonregulars and customers I dislike are pretty much out of luck because it's not a service we are required to provide. It depends on whether or not I feel like messing with it. A few times, I did so out of boredom because I'd rather count change than dust shelves or some crap like that. I could look busy for a few minutes without really doing anything.
The same goes for busting big bills. I can always fall back on the excuse of not having change for it unless the customer has already pumped gas.The Borg wouldn't know fun if they assimilated an amusement park. -- B'Elanna Torres, Star Trek: Voyager

I pay in change on occasion, but never more than a dollar or two.
Seriously though, it can be appreciated on weekends.Unseen but seeing

I try to save the change for the vending machines at work, or I'll use them at the self-checkout at the store. On occasion, the clerk at the convenience store the DH stops at for coffee in the mornings will be running short, and I'll sell her a few dollars worth (or however much she wants). I also try to keep about a dollar's worth of loose change in my front pocket where it's easily accessible, but if it's not convenient to use it on my purchase, I won't.Everything will be ok in the end. If it's not ok, it's not the end.

The rare handful of times I've had to pay in change, I
1) asked. (If no, too bad so sad for me)
2) counted it out in easy piles (4 quarter piles, 5 dimes, etc)
3) Did this to the side, so the cashier could see and take my money easily, but could also take other customers easily while waiting.
Know why I did this?
Because I've got a brain!Any day you're looking down at the dirt instead of up at the dirt is a good day.
