I’m glad to see that New Yorkers will be able to use cash instead of being forced to use a credit or debit card to make a retail purchase. I hope a similar law is introduced and passed in my state. Or better yet at the federal level.
I don’t have a debit card. And I don’t want to use my credit cards for trifling purchases such as a cup of coffee, a movie ticket, or a tooth brush. I’d rather just use cash for these transactions.
