Can You Spare A Quarter

There are always people begging or busking outside the bank near my place. This is in a country where you can get a $1000 bill from an ATM, and $200's are so common you can use one to buy a pack of gum.

Hasn't it occurred to them that no one is going to be coming out of there with something small enough that they'll be willing to part with it?

"Hey, man, it's okay... I can make change..."

Pack of gum with a $200 bill, yes, but paying for a $2.05 purchase with a $10 bill and no 5-cent piece will get you some nasty looks from the cashier.
