I use my debit card for 90% of my purchases (even if I have enough cash in my wallet).

If you are proficient with the machine, its only slightly longer than paying with cash. Sometimes its faster, especially if the cashier has to open a new role of dimes.

Checks are the worst.

Or if he or she can't make change from a $20 without taking his/her shoes off, which is becoming more common every day

The government would love to see a cash less system. I remember when I was in school ( a long time ago) and they talked about eventually not using money. Personally I don't believe it will happen for a long time if it ever does. Too many people are afraid that the government will have too much control, being able to monitor your every move. " John bought 2 packs of cigarettes, a bottle of Scotch, some propane and some fertilizer" Fed guy " maybe we ought to check him out". Even though it could be all innocent. Cigs just because he likes to smoke. Scotch because he likes to have a drink now and then. Fertilizer for the garden and propane for the grill to cook some burgers after working on the garden...
