    I actually saw someone pay for groceries with pennies a few years ago. The cashier was not amused.

    QUESTION:
    I thought that United States currency was legal tender for all debts. Some businesses or governmental agencies say that they will only accept checks, money orders or credit cards as payment, and others will only accept currency notes in denominations of $20 or smaller. Isn't this illegal?

    ANSWER:
    The pertinent portion of law that applies to your question is the Coinage Act of 1965, specifically Section 31 U.S.C. 5103, entitled "Legal tender," which states: "United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues."

    This statute means that all United States money as identified above are a valid and legal offer of payment for debts when tendered to a creditor. There is, however, no Federal statute mandating that a private business, a person or an organization must accept currency or coins as for payment for goods and/or services. Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether or not to accept cash unless there is a State law which says otherwise. For example, a bus line may prohibit payment of fares in pennies or dollar bills. In addition, movie theaters, convenience stores and gas stations may refuse to accept large denomination currency (usually notes above $20) as a matter of policy.

    ref: Dept of Treasury
    Treasury Website

    I remember cases like this when I was in school. It may be legal tender but not required to accept a jug of pennies. I love a wise-ass but I would tell him to f off. Just my 2c. It is amazing how much time and thought time people waste due to your own issues. :smack:

    You forgot to mention he got arrested the following week for a bag of weed in clear site while he was running in to a 7-11!

    Awesome, if more people did this then the rogue parking companies might give up!

    I think some banks charge for counting that much coin - that would cut into the parking companies profits - yee hah!

    Funny video but still a waste of police manpower. Why did they have to send 7 cops to handle this? One cop should be able to manage a situation like this. Government spending at its best!
