    hmm I dissagre, personally dealing with cash is a hassle, you always end op with loose change, I also volunteer at a small concert venue and unless people have exact amounts (which almost never happens) this slows the transaction down, a card transaction(unless there is a technical problem, a rather infrequent assurance) is quick and a consistent time which helps move the line at the door forward,- Personally , from both sides of the till, cash can't disappear soon enough. And for the ooh I'm being tracked crowd, the only thing that (as far as I know) is beeing sent to the bank is time,date, amount, and cc number, no details about what was purchased, the only place that is stored is in the pos(so unless the cloud provider is hacked within 2 years (I think this is how long they are requiered to keep records) no details of what is purchased will be leaked. An unless there is legitemet case for the authorities to access the details, they will not get them. Well this is in Norway things might be different in the US.
