I mean, since the last time I've visited: it seems like no one ever carries it. I prefer it because CC charge additional fees (which end up making the item cost more) I have a small rant about that: STOP RIPPING OFF PEOPLE WITH THOSE SURCHARGES?! (It should be 0 rather than 1%) as it may seem trivial, they add up overtime. Are stores allowed to refuse cash payments outright despite them being legal tender?

For some reason ATMs here only do $20s and $50s. You'd have to go into the bank or a supermarket to get $100 notes.

Places would prefer $20s anyway. So I get out an amount that means I'll get a couple like $180 so it's a good mix
