@@JoAnnsSchool yh
I'm 25 and so used to automated systems TELLING you how much you owe them, just picked up a job at an old fashioned diner so I have to learn how to figure out what I owe them and count it. Figuring out what I owe them is the only problem. Feel like I'm a third grader again this is so embarrassing lol but this video is a life saver!
Years ago I went out of town to help open a new fast food location and their registers weren’t working but they insisted on doing the grand opening anyway so I had to make change like this 😅
Wow you're really cute, I couldn't help but notice your picture. I hope your job goes well and that you make good tips.
Im terrible at counting money so thank you 😊 🙏
literally so horrible i’m literally embarrassed
Me too.
@@cheyennepalmer7990 same I start my first job on Tuesday
@@ashelysavage3994 how did it go? I’m going start working next week im kinda nervous im so horrible at counting money I feel like I’m going to panic and messed up everything lol
@@ashelysavage3994 how did it go?? 💕
I really needed this i just started my new job and it has an older register so there is no calculator, i also have a hard time doing math in my head without blanking under pressure
I was a cashier for 5 years and knew how to count back change, and then I became a janitor for a long time and totally forgot. Thank you for this video, I have a new job as a cashier again and it helped me remember how to count back change! I find it very useful when the customer gives you more change after you already inputted the amount into the cash register and you have to do the mental math to figure out the difference. Thanks again for this vid, it was very clear and concise!
I'm terrible with numbers and I've been relying on the register for at least 20 years and never learned this! Thanks 👍 I kinda get the change part, but not the dollars part
Thank goodness I'm worse with anything math hoping the cash register does the work mostly
I like the way this is explained because when someone trained me I was yelled at and humiliated in front of customers and coworkers.
Easier to practice at home until you're confident, then you go to work and calmly tell them, "I got this."
applied as a sales retailer in a store and i thought we have a dedicated Cashier in the store the i applied i didn't know we are all going to be a cashiers too and tomorrow is my Cashier training and im afraid cause im soo bad at math and maybe the trainer will shout at me and humiliated me in front of the customer 😭😭
@lemonsoda1773 watch part 1 and part 2 as many times as you can. Hopefully it will help you to be more at ease. 😊
I feel so bad for you 😭 goodluck at your job im rooting you can do it!
You’re a lifesaver!! I’ve never been taught this in school and I’m a cashier at a restaurant and department store.
I'm pretty decent at counting back change and working with numbers but if I'm put on the spot, I'm so liable to mess up. I start training for a cashier job tomorrow and this video is helpful for practice, so thank you!
Thank You so much honestly. Ive just got my first job at 16 and my job requires fast math thinking skills with giving cash back on the spot. Growing up i wasnt taught how to guve cash back and this method . Im gonna continue practicing and hopefully i get better bc its completely nerve racking being under pressure and trying to give the correct change back in a fast way
new model cash registers show you the exact change so you have nothing to worry about but its all ways good to know how to count change
Thank you for the help! I started looking for jobs recently and I’m so anxious about being a cashier but this made me feel so much more confident 😭🙏
You are so welcome!
This video helped with clarification, silly as it might sound but no one really took the time to teach me this. Thank you😊❤
Tomorrow is my first day, this helped me tremendously! Thank uuu
I’m so used to machines telling me what my total will be or counting for me I’m not used to counting money myself. Thank you so much for these videos.
You are so welcome!
Always be careful to protect yourself, instead of trusting a machine to think for you.
Like when taking money from an ATM, I count it to make sure I received the correct amount of cash.
Thank you, I struggle with counting money fast and I don’t work well under ensure and I’m going in for an interview at a grocery store.. if hired I’d need to know how to count back change. This helped me understand so much
@@simplyreecee how did it go?
I'm incredibly bad with money and I appreciate how you talked slow and clearly, thank you 😭🙏
@@wilberwillow1982 ME TOO 😭 i got a job as a cashier and im watching these videos rn they’re so helpful
Tysm. I’ve always been a slow learner in these kinda stuff and it’s making me not wanna work but this helps!!.
THANK YOU FOR THIS!! im starting my frist job as a cashier!
Mine too! Good luck 🫶🏽
@ u tooo!!!!! 🤞
Thank you it was really helpful! I am starting my new job tomorrow 😅
Thanks for this.
But also, why is this vid lowkey relaxing??💀💀 like im tryna concentrate but im lowkey zoning out cuz ur voice is very relaxing, reminds me of asmr😭
Hmmm...I guess I'm not a hyper teacher. I typically deal with many scared students who don't want to be rushed. My lessons aren't flashy, fast, or tense. Maybe you can increase the playback speed to 1.25 or 1.5? I don't know? I hope you were able to grasp the idea though.
@ it was a helpful vid😁 I’m just relaxed easy when it comes to soft spoken voices lol
@@JoAnnsSchool fish likes the video 🙂🙂
Thank you so much for this video! I'm using it for my absent students to watch at home, or if they need a reminder when doing homework. Your's is the first video I found that wasn't condescending about "why kids can't count back change these days." Thank you again!
I honestly can say that if I was told they count change as a Hobby I would definitely belive it this person did better than my parents and grand parents could of when it comes to counting money period
omg i can’t believe i never thought of counting UP instead!!! thank you so much
I’m 17 and don’t know how to count money is so embarrassing 😢
Just watch both videos and you'll probably be fine. :-)
Same girls it’s ok same.
@@innileliluvsan ye it’s so embarrassing
I’m 16 and i also been a slow leaner too growing up, it’s really embarrassing 😓😓😓
@@DanielaZavalaIbanez ye but keep practicing you’ll get better
Thank you i have a hard time understanding math but these videos are super educational and I'm I can go to a resource to help me
I have been watching lots of different videos and I wasn’t understanding how they were counting the coins. Thank you for explaining it so well.
Thank you so much for providing this tutorial, Im not a cashier but I have problems with counting change in US currency and have problems with identifying the differences between a nickel and a dime. I may not be an expert yet but this video provided a great insight on using the currency, thank you!
Read the description. I have U.S. money videos.
Thank you for this!
I remember back in elementary being taught things like this for maybe a year, but all the sudden it's like it didn’t exist anymore and was completely gone!
Hadn't known they stopped teaching this anymore!
Don't know why they would do that as money is always relevant.
And then when you get put in the drive-through with a person from a different generation thinking you know how to do it, and then feel belittled for not knowing how to do something that you weren't really taught in school. 😔
Never thought of counting up, it made it so much better! I always subtracted, but then would get wrong numbers.
I've been teaching my niece how to calculate in her head without using a machine that gives her answers. It's important she learn so that she isn't cheated. I show her these videos hoping they'll stimulate and motivate her to learn. I went on Amazon and bought her play money that looks real with a cash drawer. She's getting better thanks to the help of these videos. 👍
Thank you so much I am about to get my first job as a cashier at a restaurant soon and I am bad at handling money so this is very helpful!!
Thank you this helps I do have a hard time so good thing the cash registers tell me how much change I have to give back or this would be hard for me 😂 I just got a job as a cashier it’s my first time I’m nervous
You've got this! Just remember to COUNT UP from the sale amount to the amount they give you.
I think when it comes to learning a subject that's been uncomfortable or missing the right strategy, it can be and feel hindering.
However, especially on timed quizzes and tests, it's quite liberating to find content that challenges effectively; because it starts with the basics and how it's taught. I've tensed up with math but...I embrace good teachings for turnaround.
I don't like to ever put down others for what they don't understand. If I learn something, I like to show them with compassion, and that is why I like this very channel. ✖️,➕, ➖,➗, 🟰...
-💚*🙏🏽😊
Literally school never taught me this. I just knew PEMDAS
Did school literally teach you to add and subtract? Same concept.
I work retail and while it's nice to have a computer do the math and calculate change for you, the system goes down occasionally. Some of my older collogues told me of he lost art of counting back change. While I don't plan to do this for ever, I started doing some research and bumped into your series as a part of it, and it will definitely make life much easier. Honestly, I may just disregard the computer and do it this way and use the computer to confirm that I did it right to practice my skills for when the system does go down again (and it really is a question of when, not if)
That's a wonderful idea! It will sharpen your thinking and wit.
That the whole reason I came to this video I ain’t been a cashier in three years I was real good at counting change but I ain’t did it in so long I’m losing my touch
this is insanely helpful! i understood immediately!
Youre doing the lord's work. A gal at the pet supply store had to call over a co-worker to help her when i paid in cash. 😮
Wow! I like to pay with cash, and I always gently walk the young cashiers through the change process if they need the machine. "Count up from the amount due... to the amount they gave you".
I what to Learn math so i con work
@@daisylliguicota7898 www.youtube.com/@JoAnnsSchool/featured Watch each playlist for each level and you will learn everything.
Im amazed at the knowledge amd amount of videos u have thank you
My pleasure!
So helpful i always been embarrassed and bad at mad but i really wanna be able to do this stuff 💞🥰
Thanks for the help im 16 working at a restaurant and when peopel pay with cash i may have a little panic attack but this helped me understand better
Keep going and after awhile you'll be great! Doing a task over and over makes you proficient! : )
@@ChanceLemke Hi! I just applied for a job at a local deli in my town. I’m really nervous about working at the register cause I can’t count money that well, do you have any tips for me? I’d love some advice, and I also get very nervous around people so if you have any advice I’d love to hear it, I’m kinda desperate haha😅 I start next Monday I’m so nervous!!
(Hope this isn’t creepy for asking lol)
Get real money, or play money, and count it. Practice at home. Grab a different amount in your hand and count what you grabbed. Keep trying! No need to panic. Just tell customers you're new and they'll usually be more patient. After a couple of weeks, you shouldn't be nervous. Most cash registers TELL you the amount of change to be given. But, it's always best to be able to count it back without a machine telling you how.
Enter the item amounts into the register and get the total, take their money, enter the amount the customer gave you, give back the change the cash register tells you. Each cash register is different, so someone will train you to use it. Have a small pocket-sized notebook to write the instructions. You might not be allowed to use your phone while working. You CAN ask if you can make a video of how to use their cash register as they show you. They might have one already to share.
I was at Hobby Lobby yesterday. The young cashier rang up my items that totaled $19.64. I gave him a $20. As he keyed the $20 into the machine. I asked him if he could figure out the change without the machine telling him the amount. He said, "Maybe if I thought about it for a long time".
I told him how. Count up from $19.64 to the $20 that I gave him as a penny to 65, a dime to 75, a quarter to $20. He looked surprised it was so easy.
Be polite to the customers, listen, be the best, and find the fun in the job, and it will be easy.
Confidence kills doubt! You've got this!
@@JoAnnsSchool Thank you so much!! I just had my first shift Monday and I’m working again this Saturday. Thankfully the girl training me is really nice and was helping me count the money but I still need to learn so I can do it on my own. Definitely gonna keep your advice!
Sometimes I tell the cashier what the change amount is.
Why do so many of us freeze up and get scared counting change?? If someone hands me a 100 dollar bill I literally get so confused it’s embarrassing 🤦♀️
@@Kiki-wj7pi Lack of practice. I have no idea how to play a violin. If someone handed me a violin and expected me to play it, I'd freeze up! Practice counting money at home with a sibling, parent, friend. 🥰
@@JoAnnsSchool I’ve been a cashier before and I’d be fighting for my life everyday 😂
Also 3rd example! Most people wouldn’t know what to do if the customer would give them $22 for the $16.22
which is, the $20 is for the $15 and the $2 is for the 1.22
And customers could do that so they can have back $5 note plus very few coins $0.78
very helpful I start my orientation tomorrow as a cashier 🥰
Good luck!!
Thanks! I never use change and your explanation was so useful. You are so kind!
Thank you for this I’m gonna start training as a cashier soon so this was extremely helpful:)
Thank you so much I got my second job as a cashier and I was so scared because I’m 17 and not that good at counting change at first I didn’t get it but now I do ☺️
so glad this was posted, most useful video of them all! i start today at a retail store, this was so much help!
Glad it was helpful!
This video is terrific-thank you so much for posting it!
I just got a job. To be honest, i haver done cashier but i was able to train and wow, i need to better with the changes. I do daily math like for bills but doing cashier thing can be overwhelming.
I'm 71 and always wanted to be a cashier. But I'm scared to even try it because I have no experience with counting change. I have to mentally concentrate so hard.
...As you would to learn anything new. The expert of anything was once a beginner! Practice counting at home. :-)
@JoAnnsSchool Thank you!
@@christinawilliams1456 I’m 20 and I’m barely learning
Sigh, I just started a job as cashier. I’ve been over each of the three days I’ve worked. The most by almost $9!!
I hope you find the problem! Practice makes perfect!
im still confused. i dont know why
Learn to count coins quickly.
Memorize what coins make a dollar:
100 pennies
20 nickels
10 dimes
4 quarters
2 half dollars
Memorize what coins make another coin:
2 dimes + a nickel make a quarter
5 nickels make a quarter.
Start with the amount on the register of the total sale
and count UP to the amount they gave you.
Watch the video again and again.
You can do it! :-)
@nicoleminifig98 dude, I was thinking the samething like ..
Good mental exercise, too!
That’s how you do it when you first starting carrying money, cause after a while, you become able to make the calculation almost immediately in your mind no matter what amount of money they give you
this video is helpful because its gonna help me when i get change back from the cashier
I remember doing this in elementary school and ill be 20 in September 😅 yeah, its been a while to do change in my head
I needed this!!! This was so helpful!!!
Thanks for helping us nincompoops
😊
my problem is i can’t count change backwards. i have to go from largest to smallest. i can’t comprehend anything other than that
That just means you need practice with mental math addition
this is exactly what I needed. Thank you for the clarity and the multiple examples.
Thank you I’m very scared at my old job I used to be a carhop for sonic and would get yelled at for not knowing how to count money fast
I remember being taught this in elementary, but it was like one year then done, it's ridiculous in my opinion.
@@amandaheart8913 That's one of the reasons I'm glad I can have my lessons online. Anyone can watch, whenever they need. 🥰
Thank you JoAnn! This is superhelpful!
thank you so much genuinely this helped me!!
cashier: that'll be $80
customer: gives an $80 banknote ...chaa!
That would be funny, yet illegal. : D
@@JoAnnsSchool definitely , it was probably just two 40 dollar bills taped together
ha
@@JoAnnsSchool I'll Be Here All Week. Don't Forget To Tip Your Waitress :))
I have a problem of freezing up & resort to just looking at the screen!
Maybe try practicing at home more often. Once you become used to doing it, it'll seem easy.
@@JoAnnsSchoolI’m also happy that I’m able to understand this method because I’m terrible with math and #’s!
I came to the conclusion that I have performance anxiety!
I have a math disability ): but thank you for this ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much Madam 🙏💚
Thank you so much for this❤
Thank you so much Miss JoAnn! I really needed this.
okay, so what I pulled from this is you are basically adding the change to the nearest quarter, once you do that, you add the ACTUAL quarters until it rounds up to the dollar amount of the price and then you add the actual dollars that made the amount the person gave you, to which you then take the cash and give them back the change you rounded up...am I right?
In order to give the customer the FEWEST number of coins...we use dimes, nickels, or pennies, to get to the next increment of 25, 50, 75, or 1 dollar. Then we use paper money if needed to count up to the amount they gave.
So you basically count up to the nearest 5 & go from there?
Or, the nearest dollar amount with coins, then continue on with paper money.
@ okay thank you !
I have learning disability and it’s so freaking hard for me to count money idk how to its embarrassing
I just started working and I’m kinda getting it 🥹
Low-key they should show this too all cashiers, eventually you’ll make mistake and put the wrong amount they gave you and then you’ll have to scramble to get the right amount of change back. But all you gotta do is stay clam and count up.
Great!!!! I'm so happy to watch and learn a lot in this video. Thanks you
Thank you so much for this video! ❤
OLD SCHOOL!!!❤❤❤❤❤
It was very confusing at first and almost quit and closed the video but it started making sense at the end😅
I'm proud of you for sticking with it! Try watching part 2!
Thank you for this video it definitely helped ▶️💯👏.
I needed this thank you
thank you, you saved me
THIS WAS VERY HELFULLLLLLL
Thank you so much for this video.
You are so welcome!
Nice information bro allah bless u
Thanks
thank you so much this helped lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Video
this was so helpful
Thank you so much I was really over thinking it this is such a simple way of math
really helpful
Also, in the second example, with the $7.49 you know immediately that it’s $2 and then you give the .51
You do it automatically
Thank you Joann!
i feel like if there was a game of this i would learn faster 😭
What if you created your own game out of it? You can use your imagination and make it fun.
Great video are you gonna make a part 2
It should be linked in this videos description, but here it is. :-)
Making Change as a Cashier PART 2, When the customer gives extra coins
th-cam.com/video/vTntQUdiERc/w-d-xo.html
@@JoAnnsSchool thank you am good in algebra biology pre Calculus but I suck at making change sometimes I think am dumb
I can't play a violin. It doesn't make me dumb/stupid...it means I haven't practiced or tried. With practice, you can achieve anything. :-)
@@JoAnnsSchoolyou're amazing
Um... I need help because I keep trying to find a video to explain to me what this man did.
So he had to pay 14.92 because the cash register totaled that amount.
He gave me 20.08, which confused me. I told him he didn't have to give me 0.08 cents, but he said... give me 15 dollars only that should be completed with the 14.92.... I was lost. NO ONE TOLD ME THIS AND NEITHER TAUGHT ME THIS.
Because of this, I'm at risk of not getting this job
2008 - 1492 = 516...so his change would be only $5.16...NOT $15.
Without his extra coins, counting UP we'd do 8¢ to be at $15, then a $5 bill to be at a $20 bill. His change would have been $5.08.
This is why knowing how to ''count up'' to give change is SO important. Either you somehow don't remember the correct amounts that happened, or he was a scammer trying to cheat you.
When in doubt, remove the decimal point and do the math quickly on scratch paper.
And, maybe it'll help if you watch part 2.

thank you for explaining so well
Very good example.🎉
Yawl my brain is not braining yawl ❤🙏😂 I really cant count yawl I did janitor work and basic macnence for 6 years and getting in a different work field is hard yawl ❤
Im 20 and i feel so embarrassed that I can’t subtract or add in my head. I need paper and being a cashier means you have to be quick. I failed myself honestly. No matter how hard I try I can’t seem to do mental math.
I am 11 years old in grade 6 and next year i will be in grade 7 but i still don't know how to count money so embarrassing 😢😢😢😢
Watch the easy videos in the description. They are so easy, you'll probably be able to finish them in minutes.

I am so good now thank you
