I acknowledge their existence, apologize, and say I don't have cash (which is usually true, I prefer to not carry cash).

Why are you apologizing? To make yourself feel better? If you were really sorry, you’d start carrying cash.

It's literally just something you say to be polite.

It's the same as saying "fine" when someone asks how you're doing even if you're not fine, or saying "it was great to see you" after you run into someone you don't particularly like. Everybody knows it's a canned answer but it shows that you're willing to do the bare minimum to not be an asshole.
