I have not been to pokies a long time it seems.
I didn’t realise the machines do take coins but no longer return coins; you must use an in-store machine with an IOU.
It seems odd to me that when cash out on a pokies machine for $20.24c you get a piece of paper IOU ‘Cash out Ticket’ for the value of $20, 24c
Honestly i though i expected the 20x $1 coins and the 24c stay in machine to continue waste it.
The cash out machine diligently returns a new $20 lobster 4x5c piece and a new paper IOU of 4c
How often does this partial tender 1-4c occur?
why does it not round 4c up to 5c like legal tender?
machine only transactions staff also cannot take and exchange for legal tender?
why can you not retain partial either 24c or 4c in the gambling machine at the start or return 4c to a gambling machine?
I’m not complaining the 4c was inevitable loss, but why the behaviour
