Dimes will get you dollars

Glib way of saying "There is a high probability that..." It doesn't make too much sense if you think about the way gambling odds work, but I didn't create it; I just report it.

Dimes will get you dollars that his car will break down before he gets there.

Dimes will get you dollars that she doesn't really want to change jobs.

Dropping Dimes

This means to snitch on someone or to turn them in. Back when phone calls were only a dime, people would DROP A DIME into the pay phone, possibly anonymously to police. Thus Dropping Dimes got someone arrested or snitched on.

Some one was dropping dimes on me and the police picked me up. I think it was that snitch Jimmy!
