Are you sure that EC payments are counted as cash payments? I remember from some economics lectures that this is not the case. Interesting point, though. I'll try to investigate that further.
- lispm 12y agoI was yesterday at a large local electronics store. I can assure you that almost nobody paid there with cash. Most use the EC card... Got to a supermarket. Lots of people use the EC card. Buy some clothes - use the EC card... Very few people use a credit card. Often the shop does not accept them, because they are too expensive. But they will happily accept the EC card... Germans are 'Pfennigfuchser' and they can easily see that the credit card makes things more expensive.
