Do you use cash much anymore?

[aflyingmonkey]

I rarely use cash.  I have to use cash to buy my free range eggs because it's at an egg farm & they only take cash, that is about it.

There is a change shortage here, & many stores require exact change for purchases  Easier with a card.

I usually use a card because I get points for it.

Yes, I love using cash, this way I am not racking up credit card debt....

Where I live3 I always have cash.  When we have the very hard winds frequently the electricity goes out so you pay cash or do without.  They also offer a discount at a lot of stations if you pay cash, so I give them an estimate of what gas I will need, and then get the difference back when I am through pumping.  Also in emergencies (like after earthquakes) they take cash because of the problems with the power.  Sometimes it is just more convenient.  I do use a debit card a lot.

While I keep cash in my wallet "just in case", I rarely use it. I use plastic (mostly debit) for most of my purchases.

Yes, do just to break up the total amount I’m spending on credit so I can keep track of it.

I rarely have paper money on me anymore. I would rather pay with a card where I get some measly cash back. Do you keep cash on hand?

Hi!

I mostly use my debit card it is just easier. I believe in the future it will all be debit cards. Let's see if I'm right!

[mrisha]

Yes I do.  I already have too much credit card debt as it is that I'm trying to pay down so I prefer using cash.  Occasionally I use my debit card as a credit card but I'd rather just use cash.

You can use a credit card and not have cc debt. Just use the card and then pay the balance in full.  A lot of people do that to get the rewards for using the card.

You can't fill up before paying for the gas.  You go inside the little store and pay for the gas, then you put gas in your tank.

It is a rare occasion when I have more than $5.00 in my wallet.  When debit cards first came out I thought, "Well, I'll never use one of these!"  Famous last words.  Now I use my debit card almost exclusively.

Nope. Just my card.
