Tips

[Going Coastal]

I carry 5, 10, and 20 dollar bills with me to to tip the pushers according to the amount of time they spend getting me from point A to point B.

It has been quite a few years since we have had paper $1.00 and $2.00 bills. In Canada, $2.00 bills were used quite often. I know they were not used very much in the US.

 

Our loonie is a gold coloured $1.00 coin, and our toonie, our $2.00 coin' has a gold center and silver outside. They are very heavy. We use US money on the cruise. If we tipped in Canadian money, our luggage would be very overweight.

 

Before we leave Canada, we go to the bank and buy American money. This is probably what the Brits did.

Perhaps you are missing my point. Even if that is what they did, they would have gotten typical US paper. Indy, not the coins. The U.S. $1 coin is very rarely found, and certainly not what a UK bank would have given for $1's.
