Everyday English conversation about money -4

I have some coins I need to change.

       
 
Hear the storyline. Syd doesn't have any change for the parking meter, so she goes to a store nearby.  However, the cashier refuses to give her change....
       
  Syd: Excuse me?
  Cashier: Yes, can I help you?
  Syd: Yes.  I need to get some change for the parking meter.  May I have change for a five dollar bill?  I just need five dollars in quarters.
  Cashier: I'm sorry, but we're not allowed to give change.
  Syd: Oh.  That's too bad!  Is there a change machine somewhere around here?
  Cashier: There is one in the shopping mall across the street.
  Syd: Well, that's too far.  I may have a ticket when I come back.  What the heck....I'll buy a candy bar.
