I’m trying to get used to carrying a lot of cash again. Most places in NYC are offering anywhere between a 3-5% discount for using cash. Basically the credit card service fee. It definitely adds up, so I’m trying to pay cash.

I think this is better than the prior system which punished the unbanked with higher prices to cover these fees even if they were paying cash.

Physical cash is also making me realize every little nickel and dime such as this “Supply Temp Surcharge” wtf?
