smh @ the assist to drug dealers/money launderers (by kroger and virtually all others), allowing them $10,000/day. seriously, who else would be buying more than a few $100 with cash?!?!
frankly, with our big brother government, i'm stunned that any of these products can be bought WITH CASH. they've got the banks so scared to take cash that they close accounts with minimal amounts of cash in and out, while leaving this gaping hole in the system.
frankly, chip and pin should have been here 2 years ago and then all products like the ones we buy should be CREDIT CARD ONLY! seriously. every dollar we have in bank accounts, overseas, etc is now reported to the government- why does the black market/underground economy/criminal economy get a pass by allowing infinite purchases of untraceable products like VGC's with cash?
it's such an obvious hole that one might think that those who have pushed this police state/IRS agenda have consciously targeted certain citizens whilst consciously turning a blind eye to others.... do the math.
