Shreveport parking meters to have coin-less option
 

All downtown meters are being retrofitted with card readers

Oh joy, instead of carrying "universal" coins accepted nationwide, I need another card to add to my ever growing collection...

Kroger Plus Shoppers Card
Brookshires Loyalty Card
Office Depot Worklife Rewards
Bass Pro Shops Outdoor Rewards
PETCO Pals Card
Best Buy Reward Zone
Office Access Card
Debit Card
Credit Card
Drivers License
and a small stack of business cards

If this keeps up, I'm going to need a "man bag" soon instead of a wallet to keep all my stuff.
