Unpopular opinion: my debit card stopped working at a gas pump in Waco and it was the best $0 I ever spent
Pump shut off after $34, wouldn't take my card at all. I walked in and paid the cashier in fives and ones and went on my way. The kicker is I've been keeping a $60 cash envelope in the glovebox for months now and never once needed it. It was just there. The card failure made me realize how much I lean on a piece of plastic that can fail at the worst time. Anyone else keep a cash stash in the car for these moments?
