I'm assuming that she doesn't have the money to pay so I get out and walk up to her car thinking I'll just pay it for her as that'll be more convenient than having to have everyone back up. I walk up to her car and she tells me that something's wrong with this damn machine, it only gave her "tokens." UGH!!!, Those are Sacajawea dollars lady. OOooooohhhhhhh, so sorry. And away we went.
I didn't know the US had "regular" dollar coins until a few years back I was in San Diego and bought a train ticket into the city. Got a ticket from a machine, paid with notes but got dollar coins in return. I was quite surprised. I'm not an American btw.
