This goes for apple and Google pay as well These companies are fully banking on people loving the convenience they provide.

Always make at least a portion of your purchases in cash and check and make sure to buy crap locally, even if that means Walmart.

What world do you live in that you think Merchant Fees are not already passed on to the customer? In a retail setting you cannot typically negotiate price, but in any situation where I am hiring workers, contracting a job, or really anything where the price is not 100% fixed, I ALWAYS ask "Is there a cash discount?" Paying in cash will usually save me 2%-3% and sometimes will save as much as 10%
