> It’s real. Our bank notified us two weeks ago. Of our past five orders for coins from the bank two were only half filled and the most recent three simply weren’t filled at all. I just put in an 11 hour day helping to convert our self-serve checkouts to card-only. (it’s not as simple as you might think.)

Unlike Kroger, my company is still giving change (as of yesterday - who knows about tomorrow these days?).
