Suburbs west of Chicago: only saw those signs in big chain stores like Meijer or Target and the only restaurant chain I saw it in was Portillo's. All small chains and mom & pop stores were like "what coin shortage?" They stopped with that crap several months ago.
Yeah it seems like it was an attempt to condition people to only use plastic. Honestly I do just use credit cards at those places as I'm not going to carry hundreds of dollars with me all of the time to go grocery shopping at today's prices. I reserve cash for the few places that give a cash discount.
sometimes im guilty of using a credit card at large chains and buying a very low priced item just so they have to eat the cost of using the card
Aldi did it too...also in western suburbs
