Credit Cards: Lobsters Right and Handling Bills

credit cards: The residents of Montague, P.E.I. had made it a habit of budgeting using cash in envelopes but since fears of transmission of COVID-19 has given widespread pause to handling bills and coins, the two have entirely shifted to using a credit card for expenses, according to CTV. I just don't want to be touching money right now, says Elliott, but she can't foresee how shifting entirely away from cash would work in a place where every few houses has a table selling plants and produce and fishermen sell freshly caught lobsters right from their boats. They haven't touched it since. They aren't going to take cards or e-transfer for that, Elliott told CTVNews.ca. She's not going to take credit cards.
