My plumber looked at my cash envelope and said 'you're the only one who ever pays me like that anymore' at my house in Denver.

He told me it made his day because he could go straight to the hardware store for parts without waiting for a check to clear, which got me thinking about how cash keeps things moving for small guys too.

My barber in Austin still has a jar full of cash tips on his counter.

That's honestly a bit risky these days... it just invites trouble from someone walking by. A card reader is way safer for everyone involved.
