I'm not real fond of credit cards since I have been hacked a few times. We go to Florida I carry cash, cash for gas, cash for food. We have a lockable safe in the RV where I pull out $100 cash at a time. We are at a nice restaurant, the check is $25 plus some change, I have exact change to make it easy and hand the waitress a $100 bill, waitress shorts me $10.
I buy $25 of gas in the car, hand the teller a $100 bill, she hands me a stack of bills, I count them and say this doesn't look like $75? Teller argues a little, counts out the bills and says $75. I count the bills and say $65.
After 3 counts the teller comes up with $65, hands me a $10 bill.
At a Ma & Pa restaurant, I pay with $100 bill, get short changed $10 again.
Am I better off using a credit card?
