France without a baguette is not France. White bread is bought fresh every day for lunch and dinner. The national average for France is 90 cents. No wonder the queues in front of the bakeries in Grande Nation are still long after work.
But do the French pay 90 cents by card? There aren’t many. Almost everyone has a little under a euro for bread for dinner. Still, no one in France complains about hygiene issues when paying cash. Because many bakeries have already changed.
The machine spits out the remaining money
Whether in Paris or a rural village of 500 people, they all now have direct debit. And this is how it works: The customer enters the store, orders his bread or orders one or the other of the countless desserts. Sales personnel pack the goods. And deliver it to the customer.
Pays cash. But don’t give the money to the marketer. Instead, throw it in a vending machine. The coin spits out the change and then disappears in your wallet or pocket. Larger bakeries now also accept cards. Of course, so is Carte Blue, which is common in France.
No contact with cash
But the payment process is also unhygienic there. The customer inserts his card, enters his code – done! There is no financial transaction between the seller and the customer.
