First you are doing it wrong. You should lick your fingers and thumb prior to inserting your card and punching numbers. The salvia gives you a slippery protection. Against surfaces touched. You must wipe on the rag when done. As the rag use some of that stuff in your closet you never wear and donate it to the trash can at the pump. I am gonna put the “slash s” here.
BS! Use wipes or wear gloves!
And use the credit option on your debit card since it requires less buttons to press. If you have to sign on the electronic keypad, just use your pinky to add a small illegible signature.
