more things

i run out of 5 dollar bills a lot. and dimes. i wonder if statistically you can predict what to keep in the cash drawer. actually, a super book i got last month, Retail in Detail, does tell you how much to stock. doh! i should write it down.

also - the credit card terminal used to be on the counter, in view, and now it's hidden. it could be coincidence but 80% of buyers are paying cash now. do they think i can't take credit cards? there are stickers on the door. credit card buyers *do* spend more usually. i am going to put the little tent sign on the counter, i guess.

music - i am listening to sweet and crazy Joanna Newsom singing 'milk-eyed mender'. so good. there is a lovely, tiny record store down the block. i haven't really found anything like it elsewhere in brooklyn.
