    I know many older people who are utterly clueless and incompetent with tech, and especially money related tech. I totally agree with you on the fees though.

      @PeelerSheila @wscholermann What really annoys me is some places that don’t tell you they have a surcharge for cards until you pay.

      As in, the first you find out is when you get the receipt and see they’ve bumped up your $6 purchase to $6.12 without telling you.

      Probably illegal, but there are places that do it.

      And more broadly, I’d rather they add the 2% or whatever to their prices, instead of letting you know at the counter.

      (And while we’re on the subject, instead of 10 cents extra for a little packet of tomato sauce when you buy a pie, they should just add the 10 cents to the price!)

      I’m sure they are clueless. I’m just saying that’s because of who they are as a person rather than their age.
