quicko: coins
I've noticed this repeatedly when I go to pay: I always want to count out exact change whenever possible, but I don't think that occurs to most Australians -- mainly because, usually, you end up getting coins back anyway, so it doesn't really save that much hassle. And here you have so much more money in coins -- with $1 and $2 coins, it really adds up. So, the whole concept of pocket change is really different -- for an American, it's usually about, oh, 93 cents, whereas for an Australian, it's usually about, oh, $3.70.
