I always use cash for personal purchases.

In this computerized world,
I don't want anybody to know my spending habits,
lket "profilers" WORK HARD for their money

I almost only use cash when I go out for drinks ... I'm getting pretty broke fast lately :hic:

I hardly ever use cash. I probably spend $100-200 a month in cash, mostly because I don't like not being able to keep up with my spending easily. :) I have a frequent flyer CC, a cash back CC and a 0% interest CC. It makes a lot more sense to use them, get the benefits, and have a record of what I spent.

I rarely use checks any more - never in stores - just for a few monthly bills.

I truly dislike cash. It inevitably creates change which I like even less.

and im not going to pay a newspaper or a beer with a cc. but for bigger purchases yeah.

I think in some areas the amount of cash is rising because of the black economy... I know in some european countries the black economy is as high as 20% of GDP - thats alot of cash :zoinks:
