People are doing crazy stuff... Heck I almost did it by accident... I waqs buying gas with my card but needed a receipt. The receipt did not print so I went inside. The machine did not read my card but the attendant had turned it on!!!! This was when gas was $3 a gallon, so I would have been in jail explaining it as an accident!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately we are moving into a totally cashless society which costs us all more and the banks get to "double dip" on each transaction.
