I know a LOT of people who still feel best to pay cash.

You know when they got it all tied up is when they lobby Congress to pass laws making it illegal to pay cash.

I don't see that happening but, I never thought that I would see our Constitutional rights legislated away either.
In that mini-movie on here, it wasn't illegal to have cash, it was just really frowned upon and people were ostracized because of it and called names. That's probably what will happen.

Re: RFID

It is not cash that I personally frown upon, it is people writing checks.

(Check writers also happen to usually be the ones using multiple coupons and showing pages of competitor ads to match their 1.98 deodorant and shampoo against.)

Why do you frown upon check writing? Is it because you have to stand in line?

Those people who use multiple coupons and ads are brilliant. You are a convert just waiting to happen.

No, I will gladly pay the .50 out of my pocket for the money they are saving in order to get through the line more quickly.

If you just tried it, you would never go back.

I don't use coupons.

I simply do my major purchases online IF they are sufficiently cheaper. I don't hold up people behind me trying to save pennies.

Re: RFID

Ha ha ha!

I never do that at Walmart. If Walgreens has what I want, I go there instead of wading through walmart's stupid policies.

Despite everything, I use my local bank issued debit card for many transactions. Checks go for paying bills so that I have a bank record and I don't get my electricity or water cut off because somebody may have embezzled the cash. Cash is for whatever I decide I want to buy in relative privacy. Kroger doesn't have to know that I bought a gallon of rocky road, double fudge, extra marshmallow ice cream to gorge on that day.

Yeah, really! That is definitely NOT their business.

Re: RFID

There needs to be a special line just for coupon users and check writers where the only ones being held up are them
