Doesn’t having a couple hundred dollars of cash qualify for you as a terrorist according to the globalists? Me too, always have cash on hand. At minimum, I always tip with cash.
Wow first job was at a full service gas station
Just think of what it will look like in a cashless society .... you’ll not be able to buy anything if the system glitches and you won’t be able to buy anything without an approval from you betters.
I used mine at Taco Bell earlier today.
I’ve had the extraordinary experience of being a victim of debit card fraud THREE times in the last 17 months.
I do everything possible to protect my finances, am extremely private and am now paying for groceries with personal checks and using two credit cards for everything else.
I do pay my monthly bills via my checking account and routing numbers, however.
Wish I could figure out why I’ve been so vulnerable to this type of theft!!!

“Dad taught me to always have at least enough cash in the glovebox for a tow truck. LOL.”
Wise man.
We’ve been near-totally convenienced out of cash.
Don’t recall when was the last time I mailed out a bill payment with a check in it; it’s all online, now.
Used to keep a raft o’cash on a strongbox at the house.
need to revive the practice, and stow a couple grand, but bankers track that crap above some pitifully small threshold.
Just happened to me at our local grocery store. Managers were able to accept credit and debit cards with little hand-held processors, though. The manager told me other stores in the chain were still only able to accept cash and they had lost a lot of money in sales today. I already had plenty of cash on me, but was relieved when I was able to get more at the bank’s ATM.
No problem with Visa at the grocery store in Pima Co., AZ, about an hour ago.
Might I recommend Mr Haney's Cash Advance Service. Slightly better rates than the mob.
When paying in a store you should always use your credit card. Credit cards offer fraud protection, but debit cards don’t and fraud can lead to bounced checks and rejected payments.

“Cash only at McDonalds in N IL today at 1130a”
I hear ya. I was in Taco Bell here in Northern Virginia and all I had in my pocket was a bitcoin. They couldn’t make change so I had to buy 36,434 tacos.
How long before that might buy one gallon of gas or the reverse of "no cash accepted?"
Debit card reader was down at McDonald’s earlier.
NO word on the ice cream machine.
Part of my survival preparations is to always keep cash on hand.
I have some PM’s but it is hard to barter with PM’s as most people don’t understand that a $50 dollar American Eagle gold coin is worth thousands of dollars and an American Eagle silver dollar is worth 30-40 times that amount.
Never give up CASH!
Cash still works.
If the want accept cards and won’t accept cash they must not be selling anything.
Just wait until the EBT cards crash...
I keep a stash of junk silver. The point is you don’t ‘spend it’ you have to trade it in for the currency of the moment.
I wouldn’t know about Chick Fil-A, which I avoid like the AIDS virus.
