jnelsoninjax Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Just wondering in this age of debit/credit cards, how many still carry and use cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrynalyne Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I always carry a couple hundred but only use it if cards can’t be. Otherwise, I use debit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Warwagon MVC Posted January 9, 2021 MVC Share Posted January 9, 2021 I keep about $20 - $60 in my wallet and $60 in my center console of my car in case I need gas and I forgot my payment methods at home. +E.Worm Jimmy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakjak Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 nope, 99% of the places I go, I can pay with my phone, and if not, my debit card gets used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Matthew S. Subscriber² Posted January 9, 2021 Subscriber² Share Posted January 9, 2021 Haven't actually carried any maple leafs for about 5 years now. Literally have only held onto cash for about 1 hour total the past 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shockz Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Nope. Never. I don’t think I’ve even been to an ATM in that last 3 years. Before that I’d only take a 20 out to pay for parking when doing a night out and on the town, and now even those places support card/contactless.

Nick H. Supervisor Posted January 9, 2021 Supervisor Share Posted January 9, 2021 I probably keep about 100 francs or 40 pounds in my wallet, but I almost always pay with a card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+E.Worm Jimmy Subscriber¹ Posted January 9, 2021 Subscriber¹ Share Posted January 9, 2021 sure, it can be very useful. i try to always carry at least 50usd worth with me at all times. rarely use it though, but when you need it you need it. +Warwagon and Tuskd 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melfster Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I carry cash but rarely use it. Mostly I use apple pay tied to by credit card. If the store does have apple doesn't have apple pay I just use credit card but that is getting rare nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Yes they will but I don't care, I would much rather have it there for an emergency. +E.Worm Jimmy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Bot, Bad Bot Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Rarely for actual use but I do keep $25 in my wallet and another $25 in the car for emergencies. I really love seeing idiots who pull out the money clip with $500 or whatever in it. You know that is all the money they process in the world.

techbeck Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Carry a little bit but rarely use it. And I hate hate loose change. Always good to have cash on hand. Some times when systems are down and cannot accept electronic payments. 7 minutes ago, Superuser said: I really love seeing idiots who pull out the money clip with $500 or whatever in it.
