Also, she had to pay with a credit card because they do not accept cash. When my wife asked for a receipt she was told that she needed to give them her email address. All this in a Retirement Community.
My wife and I stopped by Darlin's last week and bought a couple cookies. They were both larger than 4 inches for $4 each and we're excellent cookies. After spending the prior three weeks in the UK I guess I was quite used to a cashless society. I could count on one hand the number of times a business accepted cash. Time to adjust to this hopefully soon to be post Covid world.
