I saw a guy at the store - I shit you not - attempting to buy breath mints with a goddamned credit card.
No cash on him. And he gets pissy because the store owner refuses to do it. (The owner would lose money).
Personally I almost always have over $100 in my wallet. $4-500 isn' t unusual....I NEVER venture out without some.
Must have been a mom and pop shop. Lots of small stores set a credit and even debit max to buy, because they can't cover the cost of processing such small amounts. I do get that. But if this was happening at say Walmart, that would be nuts. I have shopped at Food Lion and put a soda on plastic before.
And I wouldn't go around announcing you have any amount of money in your wallet in any case. If there is anything about high end sports cars people have, outside the narcissism and vanity, that they should be careful of, is that they are literally driving around in a bullseye.
I could give a shit less if someone pays for a stick of gum with 100 dollar bill, if the till can handle the change. I could also give a shit less if that same person put the same stick of gum on their American Express. I'd only agree that store policy overrides the customer in either case.
