Yup. All the Walmarts in my area (Metro Albuquerque) are supposedly on a card only basis right now (I’ve only confirmed it at the two nearest me). No cash. One of the Lowe’s is, too.

Pissed me off yesterday at the closest WM. Nothing posted anywhere until you actually get to the register to check out. I asked WTH was going on and the employee said it was national policy due to the coin shortage. I told him they needed to post it in big, bold letters on the door so people like me, who pay cash, don’t spend all their time shopping only to be told “card only.”

The employee lied.

I was In Walmart on Wednesday and they were accepting cash.

The only complaint I had was they had only two cashiers working. The lines were backed up so much that it looked like Black Friday.

I believe they were wanting customers to lose patience and use self checkout.

It’s illegal to refuse cash, isn’t it? If it says legal tender, if it IS legal tender, they MUST accept it.
