LFS,

"You think buying a pack of gum with cash and having the cashier make change is quicker than swiping a debit card?"

Every time at Whole Foods where people love to do that, first they swipe it wrong and stand there cluelessly until the cashier tells them they need to swipe again, then finally they swipe it right, then they stand there cluelessly until the cashier tells them they need to hit the green button, then finally it's done. Cash def faster.

When I'm at Whole Foods I've noticed how insistent the cashiers are about instructing me how to use my ATM card. Either their system is more complicated than the norm or people who shop at Whole Foods are dumber than average.

At Costco, for instance, you swipe your card and out you go. No cash back question, no verifying the amount, none of that [censored].
