Subject: Do quarters weigh different?
This weekend I went to the Siler City car wash to vacuum my car trunk.
I took two dollars in quarters to pay for the vacuum. I put my quarters in and only three quarters were accepted by the machine. My other quarters just rolled through the machine time after time. So I took a dollar bill and went to the change machine and got 4 more quarters. Of the 4 only two more were accepted by the vacuum machine. Not wanting to lose any more money, I left. No, the machine did not return my money. So the question remains, why did the machine not take my quarters.
