Fuggs' is right on this. She'll be making pennies whether or not she opted out of the class action, and, knowing her, she'd just get screwed over by her own lawyer. She isn't the best judge of trustworthiness.
It seems to me that the places that are most likely to be cash only are also the ones that already have a limited clientele, at least in my personal experience.
Even for those places that don't want a paper trail, the fees to credit card carriers often make credit cards and in-network debit cards not worth the hassle.
I would assume. Given that larger denominations are most likely to be deposited rather than cycled back out from a business register, it would make sense that those two denominations offer significantly more liability to the business.
The only way I could rationalize those would be if the bank refused to reimburse or offer some kind of protection to businesses stuck with counterfeit bills. What kind of services do the banks offer for counterfeit bills?
I always kind of assumed that legal tender restrictions were anti-counterfeit measures. I used to wonder why big bills would be a problem, but them my brother got a counterfeit C note from a Bank of America of all places.
