Really??? The last market I went too (it was actually a vegan food/product market) every single store I remember had eftpos, maybe it’s an eat thing. eg Nan and Pop selling knitted Xmas decorations probably don’t have eftpos, but anyone under the age of 40 that is serious about their stall / booth / Van is going to accept card payments.I’m currently walking around in a country town Sunday Market, very impressed with the variety and prices. Hardly an eftpos machine to be seen, stall owners are quite happy with today’s turn out & sales .
The los is the thought of someone actually invading your privacy/space. Well it is for me anyway.It could have have been the result of some one you gave the card number too in the past being compromised, or even a lucky guess by a credit card number generating software.
But again, you didn’t really lose anything.

Next time ask, I reckon you will find the bulk of them have it a available these days, offcourse they might prefer the cash (tax free sales), but they probably still have the little square linked to their phone.Not even a sign saying eftpos. Most of the stalls were local farmers & small producers, antique and used tools, incense and jewellery, books and music, I’m guessing there was probably about 60 stalls. Some probably had eftpos, they just weren’t showing it. I saw plenty of cash changing hands, including from me. Got a nice old tool for home, and my wife picked up a few things .

Each to their own I guess, but I hate the idea of having to make special trips to the ATM to pick up cash, and carrying coins around is a pain.I was happy to pay with cash, it’s very satisfying passing over hard currency.
Possibly, but no one seemed to care and customers seemed happy to pay with cash.

When it comes to satisfaction, I like the Idea having my hard currency earning interest rather than sitting in my wallet, and I have recently developed a taste for travelling business class subsidised by my points earned on my credit card ?
Did I mention that I collect coins?
When ever I get change I check the coins, I’ve built up a nice collection of rare and valuable coins from the change that I receive from using my cash over the years. The coins that aren’t of any interest for me I leave on the kitchen bench and they disappear for someone else in the family to use & enjoy.
She who is never wrong has an old fashioned money box and dumps all the coinage in that. 2 to 300 bucks last time she banked it.We do the same. ?
I may just have to wash my uteWanyeL. I've told her to throw some of the hidden cash at the rain Gods. It is starting to get a bit desperate.
Got a bit forecasr coming over the next couple of days. Perhaps if I leave the windows down on the truck, that might encourage rain also.Ive washed all the cars and left them out, doing my bit.

Well Mick If I was asked that question why I wanted my money for the retort would be "stick it up yar jumper" or something like that.Slowly slowly the orgs that run the world change things to suit the powerful.
A perfect example of the frog in boiling water analogy.
