Most of the replies here are a great example of a filter bubble. Living in San Francisco or New York you just assume everyone has a credit card.

Not so.

A quarter of US households are unbanked or underbanked and primarily rely upon cash for payments.

That's why Walmart introduced shop online and pay in person. Only 15% of Walmart's in-store customers pay via card, from surveys they found that two-thirds of their online customers would prefer to pay in cash.
