I haven't found a lot of local places that accept bitcoin directly but it is fairly easy to purchase gift cards to quite a variety of places via bitcoin and then use it for your every day purchases.

Yeah but for everyday needs it doesn't help too much.. I know we can buy things like Amazon gift cards of different values or so, but we can't buy food or drinks from there, and we can't pay with BTC at restaurants or pretty much anywhere else. It has to become way more popular than it is right now in order to get it inside more shops.

Bitcoin for daily use is not popular much. In limited localities people have got the chances of using bitcoin for their daily needs. These days recharge services were found more for the bitcoin than many other daily needs of real time.

is there any place you guys have been staples stores that accept payment using bitcoin, because I had to be pioneered, may be slightly users because not many people know, hopefully this will be so many people using bitcoin as a means of transaction

There are some websites where you can check where you can spend your bitcoin for example in restaruants here http://bitcoinrestaurants.net/.

Also there are some places in bitcoin.travel but none of them I have tested but seems promising.

If you make every day payments through a debit/credit card then the solution using bitcoin are the bitcoin debit card (plastic or virtual)

Life is a game, you either play it or get played.

If worried about where to go for this we all know Xapo offers debit card solutions.

In terms of wanting to, i'd rather keep my BTC stash left in a wallet for for gains.

if I had a physical bussiness I would totally accept bitcoin payments, I'm sure it would give me some advantage against my competitors who doesn't accept it. here in my city there are only four or five stores accepting it, and all of them are computer related.

The best site I know about Bitcoin stores worldwide is http://coinmap.org.

Unfortunately, they do not check regularly if the stores are still available and still accepting Bitcoin - they should really implement such a system, it should be easy (e.g. with e-mail notifications). So the end user must check out if Bitcoin payment is still available.

There are two other well-known lists:

https://99bitcoins.com/who-accepts-bitcoins-payment-companies-stores-take-bitcoins/

http://spendbitcoins.com/places/ (a Coinmap competitor, but relatively few businesses listed)

sorry I mean, not shop online, but offline, but per to per method of payment, so they are spending runs out how many transactions on the spot

it will be difficult to find then. when you find it difficult to buy online daily needs by bitcoin, then it will be more difficult to find offline ones. as long as I know bitcoin, I only ever read a few people made Threads about restaurants accept bitcoin, but we can count it by fingers. I recommend you to ask to local boards of your country. probably you can find offline shops accpting bitcoin in your country.

And the stores accepting bitcoins aren't the common places most bitcoiners buy things in their daily life. The traditional bakery, butchery, supermarket won't accept bitcoins (where the products are usually found and cheaper).
Bitcoin must stop to be a hipster thing and start being a common thing accepted everywhere by everyone.

The simple solution for you must be having a bitcoin debit card if you are getting paid in bitcoins and you do not find enough options to spend them. Bitcoin is still in its early stages so you can not expect it be accepted your street's corner shop too. But it will happen in near future, so get ready for that too.

There are some Bitcoin debit cards that exist from companies such as Xapo, but I don't think that there are many companies (in my area anyways) that are actually going out and accepting Bitcoin directly.

While something like that would be huge and I would most definitely be behind something like that, I don't think any of them have an interest in setting something like that up for such a niche market.

$50 is the cost for me to have a verified and registered paypal account or plastic master/visa cards, if I can't pay with bitcoin I'll have to pay $50 because I have no other options, however if I want to buy something in my country all I need is to spend 5 minutes to convert bitcoin to my currency automatically and receive in my bank account within 30 minutes.

Dang, ah barely could comprehend what OP tryin' ta write. But if y'all buy bitcoin wit' yo fiat cash dollas an' then spend that fo toilet paper, thet is jist stupid. Almost like you wipin' yo butt wit bitcoin itself. Treatin' it like digital asswipe, an' it deserves more respect than dat.

A delivery service in Germany used to accept bitcoin, meaning you could actually use it quite frequently.
Unfortunately they got bought out and now don't accept Bitcoin anymore Sad

A supermarket here does accept bitcoin though, and there are sites like All4btc where you can buy anything you want using Bitcoin, but with a small surcharge.

I don't know why more independents don't accept Bitcoin, fear of the unknown?

Unfortunately there is still not enough stores with everyday stuff that are accepting Bitcoins and not in many countries. But the solution for me is Bitcoin debit card, it gives the freedom to spend Bitcoins in every store, to buy food or pay bills, no matter if the store accepts Bitcoins or not.
So every initiative for business that accepts Bitcoins is welcomed.

bitcoins can be used to buy food among it’s other uses.
It is possible to buy a Subway sandvich for around 0.006BTC in some locations in the United States.
Many food stores are beginning to take BTC as an equivalent of credit card currency.

bitcoin is just code.

it has no voice, it has no arms and legs.

bitcoin cannot walk into YOUR local shop and tell YOUR local shops manager all about bitcoin.
if you want YOUR local town to start accepting bitcoin, YOU have to try talking to shops to accept it.

dont sit on YOUR hands waiting for the code to do something. or for someone from bitpay/coinbase to specially travel to YOUR town to do the footwork for you.

if YOU want it, YOU need to ask for it

thank you for your opinion, it was a good insight for me, once again not like that I mean, around where I live there are a few people who postscript is user bitcoin, and now I've opened a store staples for daily needs so I took the initiative to accept bitcoin payments from their use, in addition to iotu also includes promo for others perhaps fitting passing, can stop

Where do you live? Address of your store? It's great to know that someone has took initiative to start business which accepted bitcoin payment as I've planned the same thing, just wait until I have sufficient funds to start mine. We need more and more merchants/stores or even big groceries/supermarket to accept bitcoin. I like the idea of contact local exchange to do the things but clearly we need another plan too.

There only few place that accept bitcoin on my country since my goverment still not approve bitcoin usage yet.
Some hotel and mini market in Bali already accept bitcoin but they said that the volume transaction still low due low popularity of bitcoin

Mainly stores are online that accept bitcoin as payment. In day to day lives we have an exchanger, from Bitcoin to our currency, and also do a service of accepting BTC to process our Bill payment and Mobile credit. WE can exchange our Bitcoin on that site and send it anywhere in the country thru bank transfer or remittances.
