you don't know Chinese people very well, do you?
Chinese people actually save money.
A Chinese guy will make $100 and use only $100, most of the time not even. An American will make $100 and spend $150.
That's the reason behind the amount of people who use prepaid cards in China.
your theory doesn't really work....u can apply to it on anything...oh he breathes in the same air as i do....oh he drinks water too....oh he takes a dump at the same public washroom that i go to too...(or more like....soy milk isnt exclusive for rich ppl only...) you get what i mean?
rich ppl aint aliens ya know
btw, it reminds of this video where a guy pays his parking ticket in 8800 pennies..happened in the states:
Lol, did you guys ever read the epic story about some guy buying a Lambo with like 10 different card credits? There was a thread on f-chat last year, I'll see if I can find it.
last time i saw the wife of the grand marshal of the chinese army stationed in hk opened half a dozen $2000 wines each at a restaurant here.... crazy chinese people... and i thought 2000 dollar bills at sea harbour was baller
question: can restaurants ... lets say on a $200 bill ~ refuse / not allow you to pay in just dimes nickels and pennies?
Don't know about China. But in USA they are legally required to accept any legal tender unless restrictions well specified ahead of time and in reasonably obvious places so the customer "acknowledges" that before receiving service.
Whether they come and cut you up afterwards is a whole different jurisdiction.

in Canada, as long as the restaurant/business' excuse is that they want to protect against conterfeits, they are free to not take any money you give them. (hence some stores don't take $50, $100, the same applies for pennies and stuff)
Credit cards in China are all prepaid I think... Posted via RS Mobile
That's impossible, I have credit cards from China, and i've used my credit cards from here in China.
