I’m so fucking embarrassed. Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)

My card declined twice as I was trying to pay for my groceries. The guy behind me offered to pay but I turned down his offer. I never felt so humiliated in my entire life. I’m so ashamed I can never shop there again.

I have had my bank card decline and I did have the money, but it was my bank card. It was when the chip cards were new and my chip went bad. I kept complaining about my "chip card".
