I agree with you, Ariel, and have never had problems.

However, on the management end of being a blind "cashier," I would 
definitely use an iBill or some sort of system to scan in bills given to me 
by the public.  After all, if the till is short, guess who needs to be 
responsible?

I haven't gotten into any of the money reader apps. I guess I just
trust people too much. And I wouldn't want to hold up the line for
that long to scan all my bills. I always ask what bills I'm getting
and put them away before I leave the register. That has worked fine
for me and most blind people I know.
