Your neighbor is a terrorist!

My experience in whether or not it is faster or slower varies upon the vendor. Personally, from working fast food, as long as you weren't using exact change, I could get your money out way faster than the credit card machine.

However, grocery stores seem to have a higher quality card machine than fast food so I generally get through much faster than with cash. Just varies. And of course sometimes you have an idiot cashier.
