Unfiltered Story #208729

I’m the stupid customer in this story. I’m at a Variety Store, trying to buy a Birthday present for my Grandma. The purchase is $6.75, so I think I hand the cashier seven dollars worth of Loonies and Toonies. I even count out to make sure I have enough, and I’m sure I have OVER enough! Apparently having an extra Loonie leftover, I go to put it back in my wallet. Though, I’m told that I’m short on change. I look again, not meaning to rip off the cashier. Luckily, my step-Mom is with me to tell me this, because I wouldn’t have noticed. But, I’m told from the cashier that she would’ve told me, anyway. Trying to recount the change, I still don’t see the problem, until I finally realize I’m short that extra Loonie I’m about to put away. I tell the cashier that I’m counting a Loonie as a Toonie, and that it’s a simple mistake. I don’t know what was going on in my mind that day… I guess we all have those days!
