Old Tyme Grocery in Lafayette doesn't take cards. They don't hurt for business. I make sure I have cash anytime I'm in Lafayette because it's 100% I'm going

Interesting since there is no place in any tax return where net worth is reported.


It's on the same form that shows possible business ties to russia

You use a bank that charges you for ATM withdrawals at any ATM? Might want to look into getting into 2017 yourself, boss.

This is an easy thread to tell on who lives in a city/burbs and who lives in the middle of Bumfrick.

You beat me. But the same goes for Cedar Grocery.. and like someone else said earlier.. he doesn't give a shite if you don't eat at his place because he doesn't take credit cards.

Venmo is for private use. Venmo business is just as expensive as a merchant account.

Troy at the Barber Shop doesn't take cards either. He will tell you about the ATM machine at the Cracker Barrel across the street. Bring your cash losers.

My hair salon just started charging 3% more if I use a credit card. Assholes.

Don't ask Pokie for fricking French fries either. And if you are a minority you might want to cover your ears.
