Having recently spent six weeks in France and Spain I didn't find
anywhere that wouldn't take my credit card, they didn't refuse the
folding stuff either !!
One place ( restaurant ) in Barcelona gave me a 5% discount for paying
in cash ! Instead of 15% service charge they charged me 10% Which is
about what I would have given as a tip !!
