Store will not accepnt roll of quarters?

Is it legal for a store to not accept change. I was at the gas pump and had a roll of quarters $10 the lady said she cant accept that. I was heated and after 10 mins of me and other customers giving her hell she still didnt accpent it. Is this something that is ok for them to do. Quarters are legal us currecny just as good as a $100 bill. I think this cumberland farms store is rediculous. Discriminate against people who dont got big bills and only change.
Did you expect to be treated any different from such a minimum wage loser?????
Write corporate headquarters.
Yes, it's legal. They don't know how much is in a roll. Go to a bank and exchange your coins for bills if its been a problem.
it's against the law. Maybe you should explain that store's owner what legal tender means, and yes you can use it as a discrimination basis unless it's clearly stated, on a visible place, that they only accpet bills or checks.
You are better off going to the bank and have the coins converted to paper money..
I'm not 100% sure. I do know that gas stations and other businesses can refuse large bills, like hundreds, but I've never heard of a store refusing to accept coins. I can only assume that they have a policy. I can understand not wanting to take 1000 pennies because the clerk would have to count them at the end. Maybe that's why she wouldn't take them because she would have to open the roll and count the coins right then and then at the end of the shift. I've heard of people trying to put 'filler' into coin rolls and then passing them off with only a few coins on the end.


Edited to add:

Do not call the police. A private business can refuse service to anyone as long as it doesn't violate public policy (racism, sexism, etc). If you want to try to argue that they are discriminating against you because you use coins, good luck. Those who use coins are not a protected class under the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. Your best bet is to make your concerns known to the management via a well-written letter with information such as the time you were in the store and the name of the cashier.
I was a cashier for 5 years and back then, my supervisors told us that it was up to us whether we took a whole bunch of loose change and rolled change from customers.

He left the decision up to us cashiers, because we were going to be the ones counting it at te end of our shift. I think she should have took it, but then her boss may have told her not to accept rolled coins. Some folks have been known to short a few coins in the rolls, that may have been a reason she turned yours down.

If that was the case, she could have simply told you that and save an arguement.
As a store owner, I can choose to take payment in any form I wish. If you don't like it, do business elsewhere.
most palces will not take rolls of coins because they don't know if amount is right.
You should have told her to show you where it advise the customer of that. Then call her manager, and the Police if need be. Then you don't drive off not paying.


Answer:
A business can refuse service to anyone but NOT on those grounds. Change is legal tender so they have to take it. They can ask that it be rolled but that is it. If I were you I wouldn't let it go. I would make a complaint to the highest person behind the business and call the better business borough
take a day that youre off work.wear your best clothes.fill your tank there.pay in pennies.count them with her.help her mess up.at least twice.at least thirty dollars worth.have a witness film it.if she doesnt accept the money leave.if she calls a cop present your evidence of her stupidity.if you go to court make sure the newspaper and local news stations and radio know about it.and above all else have fun!
It may be a store policy or a company policy...you were wrong to give her a hard time.

Why didn't you just go to a bank and trade the change for a bill? Then return and pay.

There are some things in life that it is just not worth fighting over....this is one of them.
Did you open the roll and count the quarters for her? I would understand if a store refused to accept $10 in pennies, but quarters should be allowed.
The penny ploy has been tried and roundly rejected in court. Sorry, but the legal tender argument doesn't work.

You do not have the right to burden a business by paying debts with small change.

How would anyone know what was in the roll of quarters? Nearly everyone who tries to do 'something funny' with money, is trying to cheat someone. Stop being an a ss.
She must, by law, take the legal tender. You may be required to open the roll and physically count the money, but she must take it. You should have called the police, obtained names of witnesses, and filed a charge against the store. I'm not sure, but you may have been able to file in federal court in this case.

The only instance I can think of (and even then I'm not sure it's legal) is if they have prominently posted a sign to the effect that they do not take excessive amounts of coins.
some places have to have your phone number written on themto accept. she probably wasn't the manager or any higher up because i think they have to take them. one time i had a roll of nickels ($2.00) and the bitty wouldnt take them so i opened the roll up and stood there counting out every single nickel with a smile on my face...they can't just refuse money. as everyone else waited in line, the cashier was the only embarrassed one. taught that b****

oooh, fearit_self has a good idea. i'd do that. wait till your tank is on 'E' and fill it up and pay with change(make sure that same chick is working) make sure to comment to the waiting customers behind you that she previously refused your payment of rolled coins so your just helping her out by counting every coin. or if she refused your payment again, what could she really do if you just drove off?? its her fault
