lol if you use the money that looks like a dime on occasion they will take and not realize its not a dime. But I only did that one time unintentionally.

Of course we expect Canadian money. We just trade it into US dollars first. Many banks will trade it into US dollars. You cant go to walmart and expect them to take your Canadian Dollars. Just exchange it at a bank or before you come to the US.
Walmart doesnt know the exchange rate. Things in America are based on US dollar, you cant expect every clerk to have a series 3 license and know the exchange rate. The same as if americans go to france, you pay in francs....
Your money is all good here, just change it to the currency that you intend to buy goods with.

Usually, Americans don't accept currency from foreign countries because it is a pain to go to a currency exchange to change, in your case, Canadian money to American money. Pay with Dollar bills when in America, GO USA!

Throughout most of America, no.
Places that get a lot of canadian tourists do. I know Reno Nevada does. Probably some border areas, maybe Las Vegas.

American dollars, they're like 50p right. The real reason for the attack on Iraq was because Saddam wanted to start trading oil in Euros, not a lot of people know that, Americans will be taking what they can get soon enough!

They will trade it for American money at the bank .Not all banks though .Experience in travelling .Most Americans would call it monopoly money because their too arogant to realize its only behind by about 4 cents to their dollar ....

No
You will need to take the money to the bank and exchange it for American at the current exchange rate.

Seem to find it tossed into the poker pot, and have a pretty good idea of where it's coming from. What really gets me is when he tries to pass off Serbian money.

I think closer to the border they are probably more lenient but anywhere I worked.....no. Ya...maybe change might slip through but too often and we were expected to pay out of our own pockets for accepting them.
