  • I have a leather coin bag full of change that I swear I could bludgeon a person to death with because it just so rarely gets used.
    It pulls down my pants if I bring it with me anywhere.

    I recently had it with me out recently and ended up paying the restaurant bill in exact change because of it and we were all amazed. They say it doesn’t happen really anymore.

    I just can’t justify the like 8 bucks of paper money it would make me either.


  • Yeah I do agree that American cash doesn’t stretch as far. I’m definitely having to hit the ATM or cash back option way more than before for how much things cost. 50s are good for restaurants and the like but 100s are so weirdly distrusted and a pain. But I rarely get back 5s and 10s cause seriously inflation is just so good damn high.

    I keep thinking I’m gonna pull out a bunch of cash to have but then… Yeah I am not one to stuff it under my mattress and it being available electronically is so useful… Sigh…

    Trying. It’s all we can do until things change for real.
