Spike ,'Potential'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
In all seriousness, I am suspicious of places that don't take cards, I actually assume they are doing something dodgy with taxes.
I know a lot about how my local coffee shop is run. the owner attempted to do other forms of payment-they just cost her too much
I'm moving more towards cash, because I find I spend less and am more aware of how much I'm spending when I have to actually hand over money. The only terror involved is the feeling I get when I realize I've run out of cash.
The best way to hide purchases with nefarious intent is to have bought them all with cash in the years previous and tucked them away innocently in an old box in the shed, just in case you might someday need a tarp, nylon rope, and chloroform. Totally legit.
There are a couple cash-only places in town here, too.
I'm doing the Chair Dance of Anticipatory Cheese Delight.
Do we need any prosecco, or are we good to go on that?
I'm so sorry, Maria.
Sure it is.
If you hate America!
I don't hate America, I just hate paying with ATM cards. And in my head, most retailers don't accept credit cards for amounts under $10 even though I KNOW that's not true anymore. I just have a hard time unremembering it.
Cheese! I want Cheesentine! </greedy, what filet mignon isn't enough?>
When I woke up from sleeping in, yay, it was totally clear and I was all, "buh?" about calling it a snow day. And now? Total snow chaos! It's snowing up, yo.
I may need to record a video.
Oh, yeah, and I totally terrorist paid for my groceries yesterday. It's an awesome hardcore way of enforcing budget. I would normally just fudge, but since I have the cash monies in my hand, I have to put stuff back if I go over.
I suspect I'll be getting into Downton Abbey soonish. My recent Rupert Graves obsession has me watching the Foresyte Saga, and I feel my historical drama fan waking up.
Do we need any prosecco, or are we good to go on that?
Grab some on the way home. Are you leaving soon?
By 1 at the latest, hopefully earlier. Want to finish this chunk of data, but making excellent progress.
