Do you take credit card?

Yesterday I had to mail a letter and if I paid for it with cash I wouldn't have enough for the micro bus home. I mean, I could have gone to an ATM, but I didn't feel like it. I felt like smoking my pipe and buying my wife some flowers...which turned out to be impossible without cash.

"It'll be 1.35 litai." ($0.52)
"Is it possible to settle by card?"
"Yes."
"Okay then."

What's the smallest bill you've ever paid by credit card?

Okay Liepa, but in the past the dollar was worth more, so it would have been more than litai than it would be today, certainly more than 1.35. I'm still the wiener so far!

This is my counter:
