Supermarket giant Woolworths has abandoned a controversial trial of cashless stores following complaints from shoppers who still want to use notes and coins to buy their groceries.

6,000 people signed a One Nation petition calling on Woolworths to ditch their cash ban. It followed on from One Nation successfully defeating a proposal in parliament late last year to completely ban cash transactions over $10,000.

International banks might try to push everyone further to a cashless society, but Australians know better.

Cash is legal tender and I will continue to fight against any attempt to make it illegal.
