I do it in my head, and often times have corrected the checkout person. Smartass! Yeah, I do the same thing and feel so superior. :>)

<<I do it in my head, and often times have corrected the checkout person.>> I started in retail when I was 11. Spring loaded cash register, I figured the change. When I was in the Army, my wife worked for a day care center. I did the numbers with a pencil and paper faster than the two women did them with calculators and my total was the correct one. I can't believe when I have a $5 purchase and give the 20 year olds a $20 and get handed back 3 $5s and get asked if that's right.
