No more cashless businesses
if it passes. I hope it does. I had to whip out a credit card to pay for a $1 bag of chips recently and it did not make me happy.

Yeah if they don't /have/ the change - small businesses can easily get stuck in that situation - then what? When there's a sign right on the cash register that says "we need singles!" and someone pays for their 89-cent candybar with a $5 bill - then the store should feel free to give the customer their change in penny rolls.

The only store that I know of in The Villages that does not accept cash is the Darlin’s Sweet Shoppe in Sawgrass Grove.

More "freedoms" for businesses in Florida.
(customers already have the freedom to patronize an establishment with policies more to their liking)

Maybe those "cashless" businesses should read the fine print on a dollar bill.

And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Anyone who wants a cashless society is asleep, and has no idea what's really behind that push, nor what's really going on in the world.

Agree, prefer using my phone to pay and more and more are starting to accept it. Cash is last resort.

As the saying goes if you are not changing with time, you will be left behind.
