    Welcome to UsingEnglish, ENG.

    Your question would have been better in the 'Ask a Teacher' Forum, so I have moved it there. In future, please give your threads a title that tells us what the question is about. 'Sentence correction' would have been appropriate for this one.
    Context is important. Please provide enough for us to be able to deal effectively with your question.
    Your thread title should include all or part of the word/phrase being discussed.
    If you just want to know the meaning of a word, try OneLook Dictionary Search first.

    1. Bills only. No change given.

    Keep it short. 'Paper' is superfluous for bills (BE banknotes).

    OK, Rover! Keeping it short in AmE: 'Exact change only'
    Most vending machines in North America will not issue a receipt for minor purchases.
