A few years back I was coming out of a convenience store after buying a can of pop or something but had made the mistake of not having putting my wallet away inside the store.
Outside the store a kid was selling chocolate bars for a school fund (Stupid economics) and I got the "Want to buy a chocolate bar routine." "No Thanks"
He had seen my wallet and I was carrying some extra cash for shopping and he blurted out "But sir, you got money".
Just venting here but now every place I go reminds me of that kid. That includes banks.
One way or another everyone is trying to get the last nickel out of our pockets.
Banks push credit cards. They also want to take care of your money (At a fee). Fast food places up sell. Electronics stores push extended warranties. Loyalty cards everywhere. Donate to a charity with your purchase.
Cashiers have to push loyalty or store bank cards on every shopper every time.
Maybe I'll just have a bar code tattooed on my forehead and they can scan me.
