Customers set own change at Stacey's eatery in Traverse City
In Traverse City Michigan Stacey's on main street operates without a cashier. Patrons ring up their own bills and place money in the register, drawing change from their own pockets. Owner Julia Stathakis says trust keeps theft low and notes a 20 year run with a single incident of a dollar shortchange followed by a apologetic check. The till often ends in surplus rather than shortage.
