A judge has ruled against a man in the UK who tried to settle a £800 ($1,270) accounting bill with five crates filled with small coins, stating that the debt was “not properly paid.” The disgruntled customer dumped the boxes in the garden of a co-director at the accounting firm that he owed. The executive returned home to find a payment weighing 166 kg (365 pounds). As it turns out, UK law prohibits paying in change if the bill is more than £10.
