Aldi used to do that in the US. Maybe they still do. I never carry coins on me, so for this reason (and the always extremely long lines at checkout) I never shopped there.

I keep an Aldi quarter in my car. I don't shop there regularly, but I'm always prepared when I do.

There are plastic coins you can use instead.
