There are still people walking around with cash in the US? According to civil asset forfeiture you could buy illegal stuff with that or it could have been obtained selling illegal stuff, so under that pretense every state and federal police officer can take it away.

We need KSL to tell us if this is good idea for us. Not so much!! This should not even be a news story!! If it works for you then do it and if the places don't take cash find a place that will!!

Places that won't take cash I won't shop there !
