The first time I got to pay at the gas station, my grandpa gave me a twenty dollar bill.
When I gave the money to the clerk, I stood there for a while waiting for money back.
I thought gas was only .87 cents, and for the life of me couldn't understand why the
clerk kept the whole thing, not to mention my grandpa laughing at me.
