Does anyone else do the old technique of asking the cashier if they accept Bitcoin???

Just to get the word out!!! Just to give it a plug. If you're at Subway getting a sandwich, ask the person making it if they accept Bitcoin, and ask loud enough that everyone in line hears you. Same thing at Chipotle, or the Wal-Mart checkout, or Starbucks, or even a sit-down restaurant or bar! Just ask in the most innocent of ways, as if you really did prefer to pay with Bitcoin, maybe even have a hand on your phone to look like you're ready. This helps get our word out and gets people to thinking. The average person has to hear of something 35 times before they become truly interested in it, and most people don't come on this sub so they don't think about or hear about Bitcoin that often.

Yes, the waittress/cashier/barrister/etc is just going to tell you they don't, but hey you never know, you might get a conversation started. Or cause someone else who overhears it to check into Bitcoin.

One more story: Of a particular Saturday, I was waiting in a LONG line at my bank (Wells Fargo), as they have closed most of their locations on Saturdays so the one in the area that remains open is always jam packed all day. While in line, of course I told everyone about...guess what? Yep, and stressed that with Bitcoin there is never any waiting in line at any bank, you are your own bank, etc. I had a captive audience.

Get the word out people!!!!!

EDIT: If they don't accept Bitcoin, you could scream "HAVE FUN STAYING POOR!!!" on your way out the door. One commenter suggested that, and I think that's a wonderful idea!!!! Have fun out there!
