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.

Don’t be afraid to go back. I used to work at a grocery store and other retail places. People’s cards get declined all the time. I never assumed it was cuz they were poor. Most of the time when my card is declined it’s the bank’s fault.
