blows my mind that people overseas still use cash. Literally the only reason I ever get cash out is to buy weed

It depends a lot on where you go. Both Australia and Canada are easy to go through cashless, except for small stores due to the card fees. I don’t know about Canada but Australia has capped the card fees so debit cards are more popular than in NZ.

Still you don’t really see the vendors at small farmer’s markets with the payclip things like you do in NZ.

And now the cannabis shops in California take credit cards!
