    I walked into a medium size grocery market. I picked up a few items and walked straight to the cashier. My Total was $23.75. I gave the cashier a twenty dollar bill and then gave the remaining balance of $3.75 in QUARTERS,DIMES,NICKELS AND PENNIES. I said thank-you and walked away without waiting for her to count it and confirm that it's correct. I'm not a regular there and don't know the cashier. My question is was i ignorant ? Was this the right or wrong thing to do?

    Why do you care?

     Don't you think you can or counted to $3.75 correctly?

    Little rude.... I would have waited.  Not a major offense though, especially if the clerk was slow or something.

    Re-Analyzing the story.......
     
    Does a "medium" sized grocery market make a difference?
     
    Did you really pull out pennies when it was $3.75??
     
    Slap down 4 bucks and tell her you gotta bounce but you need her phone number double time.

    If you were buying condoms it may be overlooked and forgiveable but anything else is douchey.

    This reminds me of a funny story.......
     
    At a fairly crowded bar at a happy hour.  No sitting or standing room at the bar, all guys pretty much staring at this SMOKING bartender.  She knew she was smoking and actually quite intimidating.  I was chilling away from the bar but walked up, leaned in, and asked her to borrow her pen.
     
    Every dude was afraid to even speak to this gal and as soon as she gave me her pen, I asked her for her phone number

    This reminds me of a funny story.......
     
    At a fairly crowded bar at a happy hour.  No sitting or standing room at the bar, all guys pretty much staring at this SMOKING bartender.  She knew she was smoking and actually quite intimidating.  I was chilling away from the bar but walked up, leaned in, and asked her to borrow her pen.
     
    Every dude was afraid to even speak to this gal and as soon as she gave me her pen, I asked her for her phone number
