Here's a fun bank story: Was in Delray Beach, FLA a few weeks ago (20 minutes from Mara Lago BTW so not some ramshackle). Went to four stores in a few days. Three of the four said CARD ONLY. Home Depot, Lowes and Dollar General. Only Target accepted cash. When I asked a Manager looking type who checked us out at Target why he said 'impossible to train / trust people to do cash these days' and that a few months ago Bank of America audit showed 7-10% of $20 and higher denominations that store deposited were counterfeit even with using counterfeit detector pens at registers. Soon enough all fiat will be done.
They are trying very hard to push no cash. Ed Dowd shared a story on that on an interview I watched yesterday that he has switched to paying in cash as much as he can and encourages everyone to do the same.
He shared a story that he was at a coffee stand and the clerk didn't want to take cash. He flipped the bill around and said something to the effect of 'see that wording there about legal tender'? Apparently, the manager then offered to pay using his card, and cash was exchanged between the two of them. So the manager had a side business going to get around the corporate initiative. Apparently a number of people have pushed back like this.
I remember early in CV one place didn't want to give coin change if you paid in cash (they wanted to round up) because there was a 'coin shortage'. I snorted and said, 'so why is Coinstar still in business?'
It ain't hard to count back change. What drives me crazy is how they put the change on top of the bills.
Coinstar takes around 11 - 12 % PLUS $.25-$1.00 transaction fee. Also guess what? Most Coinstars only pay off in visa gift cards (etc) aka vacuuming up fiat$ to pay in ASCII codes.. .
Yeah, it's a rip-off.
It is one thing to voluntarily go to a Coinstar kiosk. It is completely different to have the state of California issue "checks" in the form of debit cards, which is what they did this last go around. Anything over $500, you had to take out in multiple transactions, and to make it worse, they didn't even bother to use a CA bank for the fees. Oh, in the fine print, you could 'ask' for a check. Pray tell, where do I go to do that?
