There were still some cash only establishments I'd visit when I lived in Chicago. I also had a lawn service come out a couple weeks ago that only took cash or check. Fortunately I had an old temporary check from my bank to give them.
I do like to keep some cash on me, mostly for street vendors and such, but would rather pay in plastic whenever possible.
I keep my change in a Jameson whiskey tube. Has to weigh 15lbs at this point.
Back in college I worked at a full service carwash. I would just vacuum up any loose change on the floorboards. After close I'd empty out the vacuums and accumulate hundreds of dollars in dusty coins.
