+274 Seeing "INSUFFICIENT FUNDS" on the debit machine is the worst. Not only does that mean you have no more money, but now the cashier thinks you're a broke idiot, amirite?

I've been a cashier in that situation before, it's really quite awkward.

This happened to me and my husband recently. We had deposited our tax check earlier in the day and later went grocery shopping. We had over $300 worth of groceries. He swiped his card and it said "DECLINED - INSUFFICIENT FUNDS". I felt like the biggest loser in the world, even though we HAD the money.
