Peanuts by Charles Schulz for February 20, 2024

I wonder how many restaurants snoopy hears

many don’t accept cash anymore

Bring back the kite-eating tree!

Throw the dish at the waiter and run for it!

“We are a cash only operation”

Wouldn’t cut it today

2nd panel, like the sound of your food on the grill.

now days he’d hear “there’s a 5% credit card surcharge”

Nowadays they don’t take cash.

There was a rather good restaurant in a nearby town that would only take cash until a few years ago. Now they’re closed, although I don’t think that was the reason.

Not taking credit cards these days is odd. Although when I eat out, I still prefer to pay cash.

A lot has changed in the past 47 years. Now there are places that say “I’m sorry, sir… We don’t accept cash.”

You gotta do something about that credit rating of yours, Snoopster!

Like putting a sea shell to your ear and believe you hear the sound of the waves!

That’s one chintzy restaurant!

boy that shows how times have changed

How times have changed since 1977!

Even nowadays even McRonalds drive through accepts credit cards! Since I never carry cash to stop from being held up by panhandlers. My bank won’t replace any lost cash as a policy.

Well that didn’t age well… now many restaurants are credit card only like the concession stands at the Cincinnati Bengals stadium

I can hear the customers complaining about everything.

Today, the waiter would say, “I’m sorry, sir… We don’t accept bitcoin!”

Snoopy ASMR.

with the prices of restaurants these days, the sound would be saying “Do you want fries with that?”

just get the “chip” snoop, and then no matter where you go there you are with all your assets showing without any kind of financial hassle. and the new version saves the government lots of revenue as it acts as a gps, irs, nsa, cia, fbi, and banking/medical tracer for complete control of all assets and movements that you make when allowed. never ever be lonely again. just ask the people of China how great it is. ┗|｀O′|┛

Maybe there are better restaurants in Chicago, but around here, restaurants have really gone downhill. Both in food quality and service. Even at the same time charging more money for the actual food and preparation as well as the service. Although we miss the socializing and being in a crowd, alone together, it doesn’t compensate for the disappointment. On the upside, we are trying new recipes.

“The linguini is especially good today!”

But do they accept American Express ?

Diner’s Club. Cash for tips…

I’ve heard it said that if you put a wolverine up to your ear, you can hear what it sounds like to be mauled by a wolverine.

You know I think you’re onto something there Snoopy. Did you know they now have bikini’s made of sea shells. I learned that if you are ever walking down the beach and you see a girl wearing a sea shell bikini and you pick her up and hold her to your ear, you can hear her scream. I thought I would hear the ocean but not over that woman.

If you want any of the overpriced snacks on a plane, you will probably have to use a card. I prefer using a card these days, it keeps my pocket from getting filled with nickels, dimes, and pennies. If you get too many of them the only way to easily get rid of them without being charged a fee (and don’t want to waste time going to your bank) is to buy something at self checkout at the grocery store and stuff all the coins in first and pay the remaining with your card. I do keep a dozen or so of the newer “golden” dollars in my pocket just in case I run into a vending machine that doesn’t take cards, or a parking meter, or the occasional tip cup.

Your card has been declined.

probably true in 1977 when this was first written.

How the world has changed huh ?

an now they don’t want to take cash.

Isn’t your waiter, the round headed kid ?

Several of the smaller restaurants are charging a 2.5 – 4% surcharge for using a card.

That dates this comic.

Ask about their calamari
