So today my wife and I had errands to run . One of the stops was at Walmart . I headed to auto to get windshield washer fluid . My wife headed to grocery section to get a few things . We said we would meet at the car .

I grabbed 5 gallons of fluid and headed to self checkout . I looked for signs saying " cash " or " card only " and saw none . So I picked a register , scanned my items and attempted to pay cash . You silly man .

I made eye contact with an employee and she came over and said card only . I said where does it say that ? She replies it doesn't . Turns out none of the self checkout registers take cash on this end . If you walk to the grocery end there are two self checkout registers that take cash .

Slightly annoyed I went to a manned register and paid cash . I told the elderly male cashier my situation about trying to pay cash . He said he hears it all the time . I joked with him and said it's still US currency isn't it ? We both laughed .

I went to the car and a few minutes later my wife arrived . She was flustered . I asked what's wrong ? She went through the exact same scenario at the grocery end self checkout . On a scale of 1 to 10 this probably is a 2 . Not earth shattering or life threatening but an annoyance . End of rant , thanks for letting me vent .
