Jalter takes equivalent ~$1200 in cash to purchase dishwasher soap at a convenience store?

As a note, the 10,000 yen note is the highest available, so it'd still be "only" about $800 rather than $1200.
That said...that looks like an awful lot more than 8 bills. They could just not believe in cards, but yeah, that's a whole lot to be carrying about on yourself at once.
Jeanne was originally a countryside girl. Odds are she's used to a more frugal lifestyle. Assuming Gudao still works for Chaldea, he probably cashes in a lot of money anyways.

Maybe she doesn’t know math like regular Jeanne and just makes the cashier do it
Wait how do they get negative interest rates from a bank in an economy like Japan's?
Thanks in part to an extreme unwillingness of the government to regulate or bail out the banks, the banks of Japan have been in a state of "zombie banks" for several "lost decades" now. The concept of a negative interest rate is basically a way the Japanese central bank tried to force people to spend their money by making it cost money to keep it in the bank, as a means of economic stimulus. Of course, this just helped to make stuffing money in your mattress more attractive than keeping money in the bank where it can be used to make loans, especially since the Japanese are pretty allergic to credit cards and prefer cash, anyway.

I'd at least use a safe, if for no other reason than peace of mind.

So in the US, we deal with that problem with a modest inflation rate - by issuing a bit more money than we actually need, money in your mattress also loses value at least as fast as money in a checking account. But I got curious and looked it up, and the value of the yen against their CPI basically hasn't changed in twenty years.
Presumably inflationary monetary policy is just as intolerable as "regulating or bailing out the banks", although since my only window into Japanese culture is anime and manga, I really shouldn't go around speculating on why that might be.
I'm betting she's going to simply snatch the gun from his hands so fast he doesn't even realize that she did so... until he hears the sounds of screaming metal as she proceeds to pulverize and dismantle the weapon with her bare hands.
Remember kids: Even E-rank Strength for a Servant is several times greater than the highest level of strength a modern living human being could ever accomplish (presumably without considering high-level Reinforcement Magecraft; if it does, then it begs the question of how Rin managed to put Medea on the ropes in close combat).

You'd be correct. Reinforcement can make up a sizable boost, but at best it'd get you to E-D Rank if you were a prodigy or cheating the system hardcore. Only by abusing weaknesses in your opponent's mind and experience could you make up for much more than that. Since Medea has absolutely 0 formal combat training or experience, she has no skill in self-defense aside from her magic, which Rin abused since she's a skilled practitioner of Bajiquan on top of being a prodigy in magecraft in general, including Reinforcement.
Medea has (E-) Rank strength, less than E, due to circumstances of her last Master, but even then she managed to use Rule Breaker, a weapon with no cutting edge, to slash through the bone of a man's arm and take the limb off with just raw strength and speed. She's probably about 5 times stronger than a peak human in our time.
For comparison, Jeane Alter rocks A Rank strength, so she could easily lift a pickup truck with one hand (Medusa can do this with only B Rank) and fold it like paper without straining.

So, the QP to Yen conversion must be pretty decent.
