A system that never went down

Remember when the cashier had to look for your credit card number in a little book, flipping through the pages, to see if your card was in good standing?

I don’t. That might have been a little bit before my time.

Probably - at their height they did that about in the 70s-ish.

I literally *have* one of these (found abandoned in a building we were helping to clear out). Mint condition, too 😁

I remember. A credit card receipt maker.

Used them every day!

& the carbon paper had a distinct smell😭

Back when we had smoking and non-smoking sides of the restaurant. 😆

Oh God yes😭remember being like 8 & buying 🚬 for our folks 😭😭😭😭

😆

👋 Although I'm a late boomer so I've always felt more Gen X than boomer.

I didn't use one but my mother and father have.

I can hear the sound. ‘Schlick-schlock!” And if you were lucky the paper didn’t tear or get all crumpled.

A credit card swipe machine

😂👍🏻

Been a while, thats for sure.

The last time I remember coming across one, the vendor used it to copy my card details and it was only when I got home I realised he’d forgotten to write what I’d bought or how much it cost.

Weird.

I used this for about 10 years in retail. But we also had our own business credit accounts. They were easier to fill out.

I remember

Such a throwback! 🙃

A credit card swipe. Copy then sign. I remember it well. I’m a boomer, but I remember it well. Did I get my Diners Club Card back?

😆🤣

Oh good. I was afraid I might have accidentally used my Club Bath Chain card. 😅
