I was just at the DG and there was a sign that certain cards like apple pay had to be bought with cash. Must have had too much fraud. In this area cash is still a viable source. People even still write checks.
Great memory!
French class in high school the teacher arranged for us to have pen pals in actual France. Mine was much better at keeping up her end of the correspondence than I was.Pen pals (this might have been mention as I didn't read through all 757 pages - yet) - - -
When you corresponded to someone via handwritten letters in another state or country. I think we take for granted that we can talk to anyone from anywhere these days.
That would have been really nice!
Yes, when I paid a parking ticket they said it would cost more to pay with credit card. But I wasn't carrying $200 around with me...
You just reminded me. When renewing the vehicle registration, there's a $2.50 fee if you use a card - whether in person or on line, and an additional $1.50 for them to mail you the little sticker and the paper registration renewal. My bank has an ATM less than 5 blocks from the Tag Office you bet I bring cash and wait in line. It's never been more than 8 minutes and there's always someone to commiserate with in line.
We kept pen pals in French class as well. I always wondered what happened to mine. I remember her name was Monique. I wasn't a good pen pal either.
I went through the same thing just a few years ago. Had pink eye and wanted to pay the urgent care bill right then and there. They refused to take my cash, said they had to send a bill. I told them if they refused my cash, I wouldn't pay. I never did and they "forgave" my bill
The number has changed? I've had the same driver's license number since I started driving, 24 years ago. Got my license at 18, not 16
