I don't think it would help because of the logistics problem of trying to distribute so much money without telecommunications because all of these systems are centralized and computer controlled.

Smaller gas stations might be able to cope using only cash but everything would be royally fucked because almost nobody has a business plan for when the internet and phone system is down for more than a few hours at most.
Businesses couldn't place orders for stock. Truckers couldn't communicate with HQ to collect and deliver anything. The Federal Reserve couldn't coordinate with anyone.
