This goes on around us every day with people unaware except the folks involved.
On a recent trip driving 5200 miles in 5 days meant stopping for gas three times a day. The cashiers in combination gas/mini-marts along the highways just see a blur of people in a hurry. I tell them mommy told me change is dirty so they can keep it.
You'd be surprised at the radiant smiles a buck or two will solicit.
