Any reason to carry cash in the parks?

It's right after the clause where the constitution discusses acceptance of VISA and Discover cards.
But you could use a credit card or other form of payment.

Yeah, or a gift card - that's my plan. Point is, you REALLY don't want to charge a bottle of water on your MB if you are on DDP or you will get charged a "snack", and that's about the worst value for snacks. You are much better off paying cash if that's your option.

I only carry cash to tip valets. So if you aren’t valeting a car at a resort, I say no.

I am 98% cashless everyday since we pay everything on credit cards and pay them off every month. In WDW I use my Magic Band when staying onsite and Disney Giftcards when offsite. I still bring a bunch of singles for valet/bell service tips and a few quarters for unexpected tolls and have at least one $20 in my wallet at all times.

please, tell me where to find that in the constitution

I think it comes right after "health care is a right"....

Oh boy, it's one of those threads now.

I'm wondering whether we need to carry any cash money in the parks these days? My thoughts:

- We can use a credit card to pay for parking.
- Our tickets are already purchased.
- We can use a credit card to pay for meals (even snacks).
- We wouldn't go "off site" for meals.

Am I missing anything?

I keep about $30 folded up behind my health insurance card in my wallet, and never use it. Nearly every dollar I spend is cashless.

The OP’s question has been well discussed. Closing.
