Change from sawbucks

Cracking the Code: “Change from Sawbucks”

Today’s crossword clue is a real head-scratcher. “Change from sawbucks.” Sounds like it could be a straightforward question about currency, but there’s something a little off about it. Let’s break it down and see if we can crack the code.

Firstly, we need to understand what “sawbucks” refers to. It’s a slang term for a $10 bill. Imagine a ten-dollar bill, folded in half, looking a little like a sawhorse, hence the name.

Now, the clue asks for “change.” This could refer to either the coins you’d get back from a transaction, or it could be a more figurative, wordplay-based answer.

Here’s where the clue gets tricky. It doesn’t just ask for “change” – it specifically asks for “change from sawbucks.” This implies the answer is related to the concept of “sawbucks,” not just a generic term for change.

Could it be a clue about denominations of money? Perhaps a specific amount of change you’d receive after paying with a $10 bill?

Or, could the answer be something entirely different, a wordplay based on the term “sawbucks?”

Let’s consider the context of the crossword. Are there any other clues that give us hints about the theme or vocabulary used in the puzzle?
