This is why I was taught to count the change back to the customer. Haven’t seen that done in quite some time.
Once I gave the cashier the coins to avoid getting more nickels and pennies. They put the coins on top of the register, handed me the change as if I hadn’t given them anything and then gave me back the coins that I gave originally.
