It is funny how hardcore all you guys are when you are freezing or being scorched by the sun in the S but still refuse to put the top up, but as soon as you step outside the S, it's a whole different story!!!

But back to topic at hand. I have a check card and use it when I run out of cash, but I prefer to pay with cash because I don't want my personal card info all over the place so some company who keeps my data on a laptop ends up losing it or gets stolen or hacked into. What would be ideal is a card that you can refill, is wireless like the T passes and doesn't require signature or personal info. I would use that all the time. I'm all for moving to a cashless society...I hate dealing with change, coins and the stupid bills. I feel like playing monopoly everytime I make an exchange...here you go, I give you two pieces of worthless fiber/paper for the food. It just feels like a game.

 

Woohoo! I'm a young gun! I think this will help me feel a lot less creepy next time I'm trying to pick up high school girls.

 

this is exactly the same response I would use even down to the age...although that will change in a month. I tend to pick the lines in stores with the least women since they are so much more likely to write a paper check. When this backfires and I get behind a guy writing a paper check I have to step and say something

I'll use my debit/credit card whenever I can. I keep some cash in my wallet for the times where the card isn't practical - fast food. one beer, etc. - but rarely more than $20.
Bank of america keep the change FTW - i'm always puttin a little money away!

 

Yeah, that keep the change thing has me putting tons of money away each month that I would have otherwise lost in the couch.

 

So, in checking the results of my poll in Vintage, I see FOUR people have responded they need no cash, they have Rick and Lainey.

I know Erick is one, not sure who the others are. Is Jeff/sireousrex counting a $2.00 ice cream cone?

Right now, the "carry very little cash, use debit/credit cards" is the winner, but the key is to carry SOME cash.
