I remember on reddit once someone from the US complaining about people assuming their bar had EFTPOS machines/pay wave saying "You wouldn't go to the grocery store without your wallet?!"

And me, in Australia just being like...but... I do? I almost never take my wallet with me to the grocery store...

(Although, because my student public transport card is the only thing I can't put on my phone, going out for drinks is one of the few times I'm almost guaranteed to have my wallet) (also because I want to have backups if something goes wrong while I'm inebriated)
