 Has a sign posted near the cash register that states they do not take payment in coin over $3.00

It is a hot Sunday afternoon. I need 3 gal diesel and a gator aide. I was in my hay field when I ran out of petrol, I hopped in my truck to go get some fuel and I left without my wallet. The only money available to me I discovered when I got to the station was american coins.
I was surprised to learn that this place of business would not make the sale. They refused mu money and I went down the street where cash is appreciated over credit cards and checks that cost the business money to handle. I was actually saving the business about 3% by paying cash.

 The reason I was given the next day by the store manager is that people pay with coins and it slows down the line. When I was there there was no line. More importantly here is a business that chases away business to speed up customer service. At the rate this losses them customers like me, (they will get none from me ever) they won't have any lines to worry about.

 A simple coin counter on the counter would fix this with out costing the store so much bad will. I found the counters on line starting at $50 and real nice ones for $150, cheap to make customers happy, speed up the lines and save employee time.
