I found this astonishing. I haven’t used cash in so many years that I can’t even remember which decade I last used it. The fact that so many people are still using ATMs astonished me.
- standardUser 5y agoThere are still cash-only bars and restaurants in the US and lots of transactions that usually can't be completed without cash, like drugs and sex.
- irrational 5y agoLOL Well, that explains some of the reasons I haven’t needed any cash in more years than I can remember.
- tonyedgecombe 5y agoI pretty much stopped using cash because of the pandemic. Pretty much every place I shopped refused cash to start with and I never went back. I had the same £60 in my wallet for two years and only used it because the notes are going out of circulation soon. Having said that I still keep some cash on hand for emergencies.
