I usually just tell people to keep the change or something if I go to high numbers like that. Change is annoying to keep track of for me, practically impossible, so I don't see any reason to get 1 cent and hold onto it.

Try putting it in a jar. After a while, it adds up to something significant.

I can say there's a real annoying customer that comes by at times. He pays in 5p coins and sometimes overloads the self-service machines to the point it reports excessive change and shuts down the cash payments.

I never pay with coins except for laundry and other machines. Instead, I save up coins of each type until I have enough for a complete roll, then deposit them into my bank account. It's like money you never knew you had.

Banks do charge to count and roll change for you, even if you use a machine to do so... That is, unless you're a member of the bank (i.e. Have an account with them).

Which is why I roll the coins myself

I dunno, here they outright refuse coins, no matter what.

What do people do with loose change, then? Just spend it?

*imagines someone buying lunch with only 0.01 and 0.02 coins*

When I was in Germany, I would put small change in the stamp vending machines and send postcards to friends back in the US.
