I don't get it either. Anything under $100 I prefer to pay cash.I see
people buying a coffee and using plastic. Given all the data breeches in
the past few years, I just don't want to expose myself if I don't have to.

At a couple of rest stops on Rt95 they had vending machines that
accepted payment by phone. While it may be handy, you paid a premium of
25 or 50 cents. Why make banks rich? I'd rather put the money to use
for me, not them.

I very rarely use cash, I use my debit card. I wouldn't know how to use my
phone for payment. I am not saying it doesn't happen though.
