Jordan can use any of the three payment methods without worrying about paying potential fees or interest.

Jordan can use cash or a debit card to avoid paying potential fees or interest on the purchase of the blender. Both cash and debit cards involve using money that is already available, so there would be no need to borrow or incur any additional charges. Using a credit card, however, could potentially result in interest charges if the balance is not paid off in full by the due date. Therefore, the best option for Jordan to avoid potential fees or interest would be to pay with cash or a debit card.
