I keep 3 forms of payment on me for this reason. Phone, card, cash, in that order.

Edit: Within 30 minutes of making this comment, I was at a Walmart. No NFC payment. The machine didn't like my card. Now I have 2 quarters and a penny in my pocket.

The register's down sir, we can only accept payment in the form of interpretive dance convincingly communicating your burning desire for the chosen products.

Tips in the form of jazz hands are always appreciated, but never expected.

I'm buying a 24-pack of beer so I guess I'll communicate my burning desire with some Chumbawamba

They're never gonna keep YOU down!

The interpretive dance is much better afterwards.

[-] Moc@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

Phone, card, gun, cash in that order

How many cheeseburgers can you get for 1 gun?

[-] Moc@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

As many as you’d like, depending on several constraints which include how long it takes for someone to stop you, how many you can carry, and how fast they are able to produce cheeseburgers.

Also tuesdays are cheeseburger day in county jail.

no... nfc.... payment??? wtf
is that an American thing or what?

[-] art@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

That's a Walmart thing. They wanted to compete with Apple over contactless payments thing and Walmart invested in tech that uses QR codes. No one ever partnered with Walmart so they now use their QR payment tech in house.

[-] Legge@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Kroger too—no tap payments. Instead, you have to use their Kroger app's QR code. It sucks

Sometimes people forget their wallets at home…
