This is a common misconception, but not actually true.

Money is "legal tender for all _debts_ public and private."

But it is the store's decision whether to allow the creation of a debt in
the first place.

If she had already made a purchase on store credit and wanted to redeem the
credit with cash, they would legally have to let her do that. But if she
wanted to make a *new* purchase with cash, they would be quite within their
rights to decline. (This is also why it's legal for stores to refuse to
accept large bills, as some of them do.)
