Current Events > How do you feel about cashless only?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I don't think that's actually legal.

I always use a credit card anyway for the cash back

I prefer cashless

I can't tell you the last time I used cash for anything

I can accept no cash establishments, but what annoys me is places that take cash but not if the bills are above a certain amount.

Over the weekend I walked into a Jersey Mikes, just to get a drink because I wanted to break a fifty so I could get the exact amount of a payment to my landlord without having to ask for change from him, and they told me they arent allowed to take fifties. Annoying.

I wonder about that too, especially "for all debts public and private" but that raises questions about places that refuse larger bills.

Cash-only places are more annoying

i never carry actual money anymore so cashless is king to me

As somebody who works at a register, cashless is the best thing to ever happen. No checking for counterfeits, nobody trying to argue over change, nobody trying to pay only in change, no breaking a $100 bill on a $3 purchase, no sweaty bills that came out of underwear, etc.

It is legal. Most transactions aren't a debt because no service has been rendered yet, therefore you're allowed to specify what form of payment you're willing to accept. But in the case of, for example, a restaurant that serves your food before bringing the check, they're not allowed to be cashless because the service has already been rendered, therefore it's a debt. A restaurant that takes the payment before giving you your food, however, can refuse cash because you haven't received the food yet.

I can't tell you the last time I used cash for anything.

I do cashless just because you're less robbable. I'm in my city quite a bit and I just don't want to carry cash there most of the time.

I can't tell you the last time I used cash for anything. Like whatever cash I have on me is from like a friend paying me back for something.

I only carry emergency cash.

I find it hard to imagine having to be that worried about getting robbed. Ive normally got somewhere between 5 and 10 million (VND) on me. Have never worried about getting robbed.

5m VND looks to convert to around $200 US which is the upper limit of what I'd consider walking around money. The only people I know who casually carry more than that without a specific purpose in mind are dealers or very privileged (old) people who never leave the "nice areas" of town and have no clue what an apple pay is.

I live in what most would consider a decent city but I dont think theres any places in it I would feel comfortable pulling out my wallet to buy something and letting everyone see that its stacked with that much cash.
