On How Much Do You Spend on Groceries Every Week?

I average about $85/week for just me. I don't eat out often. I make everything pretty much from scratch and mostly eat vegetables, fruits, beans, legumes, and whole grains. Mostly organic. I do a winter and a summer CSA as well.

On Where's Our Chip Cards America?

Maybe I've been lucky, but I've never had a problem in the three European countries I've visited in the last two years. All the places I went to were able to do both. Even small restaurants/bars.
