i thought that no matter what u bought you always were supposed to get change back, well i once bought a movie with the money my dad gave me and turned out it was exactly 5 dollars, i remeber just standing there waiting for my change and the cashier looking at me weird, and my dad pulling me aside and explaing money, but i still didnt understand and threw a fit when i didnt get my change and realized i had spent all my money.
