You are working at a coffee shop. You do not need a data type that is 1/10,000 accurate and automatically uses up 8 bytes of space. A varchar will implicitly convert.

I agree that it should be Money based on these options. Even if the database will convert the values it makes more sense to use the field to hold the value specific information. When the coffee shop business grows it will need to be more accurate.
