I get you, but cashiers are trained to be impatient and never wait for me to pull my change purse out to round it up, even if I tell them there's more coming.

This is how it typically goes:

Cashier: Your total is $10.50. Me, handing them $20: Here, hang on to this, I've got some change. Cashier snatches the money, enters $20.00 in the machine and stuffs it in the drawer as I fish out the appropriate change. Me, as they are in the midst of gathering a large amount of change from the drawer: Here you go. Cashier, interrupted during their change counting, furrows their brows at me as if I just tried to pull a fast one on them.

It can't be a quick change scheme if you haven't given me my change yet. Just don't be in such a rush.

You have to do it like an old lady. First you hand over the 50 cents. Then you wait for the cashier to acknowledge that fifty cents is pretty fucking far from 10.50. When they say you're ten short, then you pass the 20.

Telling me you have more coming and magicking more money out of thin air are 2 different circumstances so I get where you’re coming from.
