Coin Shortage

[SteveGangi]

I will keep paying cash, as long as I can, and avoid places that don't take cash. I'm not interested in paying credit card fees and interest on little bullshit purchases.

Ever pay a toll with a credit card?

Quite a few times in Indiana before I realized my PA EZ Pass worked there as well. Remarkably reliable to be honest.

It’s early, plenty of time for more content to show itself.

Someone enlighten me please. The verbiage on cash notes says the note is legal tender for all debts public and private. So how can it be refused? Serious question, because I really don't know

Places like Walmart are still taking cash but you have to use full service registers and not the self checkout

Everyone will be putting their two cents in...

Personally, I think George Soros has a hand in it.

How long before canned meat and ammunition become the preferred form of currency?

 

[cooljuk]

I wonder if there's any legal reason one can't offer a discount for a preferred form of payment? Cash, gold, silver, AlNiCo, tumbled brass or whatever.

I seem to remember there being a legal issue with charging a higher rate or fee for a credit card payment.

 

[cjpeck]

sorry, guys. I started a swear jar a couple months ago.

He wants to effect change.

If I had a nickle for every good pun I've heard about coins...

I still couldn't buy five pennies.

Cash is freedom.

Most of you guys will never make it to the quarter finals. I have a cute story. I really loved my Granny. She wasn't a sports fan. I was watching an NBA game and I can't remember why but she asked me how many quarters were in a game.
