* Inverted in one episode of ''WesternAnimation/MrBeanTheAnimatedSeries'', the titular character needed change for parking but only has a 100-pound note with him. So Bean walks into a hardware store, buys a ''screw'' with said note, and [[OhCrap realize the cashier to be the same guy he cuts off in traffic earlier]]. Said cashier proceeds to deliver some payback by returning Bean's change in ''pennies'', which stacks all the way to the ceiling much to Bean's horror.

* Quite a few banks and other financial institutions have started doing an interesting inversion in that they often refuse to accept pre-rolled change and require it to be loose and counted by them in person as a deterrent to fraud, since pre-rolled coins can be slightly under-counted (if that roll of 50 dimes only includes 48, the difference is so subtle the teller likely won't notice, but it can add up over large amounts of coins,) or include "blanks" that aren't real money to pad them out. Bringing in pre-rolled change is likely to result in the bank employees breaking them open and recounting them personally, though considering banks have heavy duty counting machines that can do so in very little time at all, it's not as much of an ordeal as it seems.
