Honesty boxes should be dying like cash. But many are flourishing

Honesty boxes, once considered a relic of cash transactions, are thriving as cash use declines. Online transfers through QR codes are replacing cash payments, with some businesses utilizing honesty boxes as a marketing tool on social media. Despite concerns about the impact of the disappearing cash on retail and charitable donations, honesty boxes continue to attract customers, offering a range of products from baked goods to local produce. The modern twist to traditional honesty boxes is gaining popularity, with businesses adapting to digital payments and social media advertising to attract customers.
