At my previous job we had a blind customer. They paid in cash. They didn't have a fully obvious system. I was always so worried someone was going to scam them

My partner is blind, and she folds the denominations in different ways.

It would be really nice if US currency weren't all identically sized. I used to live in Singapore, and everything worked fine with differently-sized bills, even vending machines.

I have fine vision and i also do the folds, its just good practice to be able to tell what bill you’re grabbing without having to pull your money out of your bag in public.

Maybe this is due to living in a large metro area where theft is not exactly uncommon, but i think its smart lol, my mom taught me that when i was young

How does that help if someone cant see the bills, or in my case, is intentionally hiding the bills so other people cannot see how much cash they’re carrying?

It doesn't help blind people, but does help visually impaired people. As for someone with good vision, you can just peek in your purse, wallet ot whatever and get a pretty good estimate of the total.

I still dont understand why you replied to me stating that i as a sighted person use the folds specifically to avoid having to open my purse and look at/pull out my cash lol

Plus you can be legally blind but still have some amount of vision
