Telescreen monitoring would have required a crazy amount of manpower.
Probably the closest real-world analog was the East German Stasi, which may have accounted for nearly 1 in 6:
The ratio for the Stasi was one secret policeman per 166 East Germans. When the regular informers are added, these ratios become much higher: In the Stasi's case, there would have been at least one spy watching every 66 citizens! When one adds in the estimated numbers of part-time snoops, the result is nothing short of monstrous: one informer per 6.5 citizens. It would not have been unreasonable to assume that at least one Stasi informer was present in any party of ten or twelve dinner guests. Like a giant octopus, the Stasi's tentacles probed every aspect of life.

In the USA is it common to have self service tills at supermarkets that accept coins?
If it accepts cash, it should accept both coins and bills. Any change I manage to accumulate usually gets fed into the coin slot at a self-checkout before I swipe a card to provide the rest of the payment. It's better than handing it off to a Coinstar machine, as those skim off a percentage of what you feed them.
The Las Vegas Fry's is still vacant, too. Best Buy has this market to itself.
Help me, I'm a prisoner in a Fortune cookie file!
