why would i care if bitcoin is accepted in a local store?
In it's current state it would be COMPLETELY retarded

A Scene at my local grocery:
me: let me pay for my milk with bitcoin here
cash register person: Hmm...OK
me: I scanned my bar code, so it is done
cash register person: i don't see a confirmation
me: let's wait a little
people in line: grumble, grumble, grumble
cash register person: Mr, please stay aside
me, 13 min later: what's the heck...forget about it...here is $5
