That's because it doesn't happen.

At many stores staff making calculations is not necessary, all easily available on their keyboard and screen.

in Canada. 

 

2 zingers, 1 poutine and 1 drink....30 bucks.

 

I went to a supermarket. Still much faster than a checkout in Thailand and the staff is quick. Bought just 1 item that cost 5.50. Gave 10 bucks in cash. The girl was stunned. Then she pulls out the calculator Thai style and does 10-5.50 and returns the correct change. It took me a while to figure this one out, but I realized no one uses cash in Canada anymore.

 

more oddities coming up.

I never use cash in supermarkets in Thailand.

Sometimes ,to avoid getting more coins ,if the bill is say 304 Baht ,

I will hand over 504 Baht , and that really confuses the girl on the

till , 

 

regards worgeordie

This is never a problem in most stores (7-Elevens etc). They input the money you give them, including odd coins and the till calculates the change to give you. No one gets confused. I often do this to round out the change.
