Haven't run into that with retailers.  Locally, cash discounts are
fairly prevalant among professionals, government agencies, bloody
insurance companies.

Locally, Aldi doesn't accept credit cards.  Not sure about their
policy on debit cards.  For us, Aldi is cash only. 

With the increasing cost of printed checks and postage, have slowly
migrated to online payments with credit card wherever practical. 
Requires more attention than the old cash/check only.  Credit is
seemingly endless, while cash is finite.  Out of cash?  No new
purchases, eat rice and beans.  Still adjusting to the new modus
operandi.  I can understand how young people get overextended with
credit cards.
