I took my grandchildren out for a hotdog two days ago, and they wouldn’t accept cash only my credit card because they said the Internet was down. I thought that was kind of strange.

And you gave them your business? I wouldn't have. I've been strictly cash with any retail transaction for the past 3 years.

I do cash as well. If they don't accept cash, I walk away. Simple as that.

So then why not accept cash??? That doesn’t make sense to take a credit card.

In case you hadn't noticed Joni, "intelligence" is not a standard operating procedure with most people.

Cash requires the vendor to ... count. An arcane, difficult, maybe even dangerous skill!

Yes unfortunately are schools and even parents failed their kids this way! I’ve seen the deer in the head lights look when paying cash and someone had no idea where to start! So I taught them how to do it! Really pretty sad!

Credit cards are controlled by the banks. The banks are controlled by the government. The government sadly is controlled by a cabal. Cash is gold. Throw the credit cards away and use check or cash. That’ll throw them a left curve. If they force us to get rid of cash we open our own banks and lend only to the people of the United States. Time to stay out of other countries businesses and the world bank.

Better to use cash & buy them real food instead. Get out of the system.

Years ago, I was in the Oscar Mayer plant in Sherman, Texas. The smell!!! I haven't eaten a hot dog since.
