Every month or two I make the trek to the local bank to get some $1 coins for the laundry in our apartment complex.

Aside from that, I use Apple Pay for nearly all in-person transactions, PayID for sending money to friends and family, and my credit card online.

I'm approaching 30 and haven't actively carried cash in over a decade.

Attended a “gold coin donation” event at a local school recently and it was a struggle to find actual coins! I dig some up from the couch cushions, but then they had a card reader at the door anyway, so I needn’t have bothered.

Yep, and it's used a shit load for tax avoidance so would probably be fairer as a whole if we just dropped it

My local laundromat has replaced their machine payments with paypass.
