Was in aldi just today, and punched in "100 cash out" Operator said , "100$ note ok ?" "Yeah mate, please " So, ...... all good , for normal at this stage ! Nothing like cash in these days ! Here's the thing ! Arrived home, and, minister for war and finance says : "Oi, what's with the mouldy hundy, honey" .. and, Yep, what a stinker ! Conclusion, looks like all those "under the mattress " , no one cares about, are coming out !
In China people don't want to handle cash... trend will likely follow South Korea and Japan if the virus hits hard too.
At the PO today to pick up a parcel, it was actively promoting its credentials as a bank. Made a withdrawal in $100s. Less fuss than a bank!
