My barber is actually cash only, now that I think about it. It's a sort of independent operation run by a few guys in their twenties, but I'm sure they mostly do it for the nostalgia factor.

A comprehensive cut costs 16, which means they pretty much always get a 25 percent tip. Pretty good system they've got.

EDIT: and at least twice I've forgotten and had to IOU them.
