You can pay cash on the AC the entire way. No credit cards as far as I remember
No Credit Cards and the Walt W and Ben F (both much more convenient to get to the 42 then AC Expressway, especially with horrid construction traffic on 95) are the same $5 price westbound (free eastbound as you mention) as the Betsy Ross. To save a dollar, one could come back on the Commodore Barry, but not worth the extra time and gas in my opinion. Have some $20s (or less) and you will be fine!
