Stood behind a women in France who paid for her groceries with a cheque 😩 A lot of places in France, Italy and Spain are amazed when you pay by contactless phone!
Cheques are on the declines by 6% a year but lotsa people feel naked when out and about without a cheque book. Still used to pay for 3 oranges and 5 apples on the market "chukkle" by quite some.
Even contactless cards are quite recent, Phones indeed a novelty I was in the promotional video off this revolution about two years ago. French banking is lagging a bit IMHO

I'm generally of the impression that British retail is about as good as it gets in terms of competitiveness and payment options etc. Poss Scandinavia is a bit ahead on contactless. Certainly most of continental Europe feels like going back in time whenever I shop there.
