    I avoid carrying more than $20 in cash.

    Interesting so many people don't carry cash. I take out half my paycheck every month in cash and use it to pay gas/grocery/misc bills throughout the month. I only use my card for online purchases and reoccurring bills. I never use the ATM because I just hit the bank up around the beginning of the month.

    I never have cash on me so the only time I do take any out is on a Friday or Saturday night, lol
    This is me! The only ATM for my bank is way across town so I don't typically have cash unless I'm going to place where I know I'll need it.

    I thought this was about logging the calorie burn from taking out cash...

    I work at a bank and I never carry cash! I barely use the ATM.... as I'm the one that has to balance it! UGH

    if i have liquid cash on me, i'll spend it recklessly, i'm more vigilant with debit/credit purchases... besided, unlimited bank transactions :)
  • Around 20 as well. I try not to take more than 20 out a week (unless I'm doing grocery shopping or something) so that I don't spend too much without thinking about it.

    I look at cash as something to hold onto or keep for something awesome! If I have it in my wallet I am a miser with it... keep it folded and in a secret compartment..... if that SAME amount of money is in my bank account, I thinking NOTHING of using my debit card and spending it... LOL

    For me, cash is the ONLY way I can save for anything.... if I put it in my bank acct to "save it", without a doubt I will dip into it for stupid stuff

    I figure out how much cash I want to spend each payday, then write a check to cash at the bank. I rarely use an ATM.
  • I hate my debit card. There have been times where I have had 800 dollars in there and the damn card gets declined at a store or for gas for whatever Goddamn reason. So my hubby and all pull all cash out of the account except 100$.

    Cash is wonderful!

    I usually pay with my debit card everywhere I can, I don't see the point of carrying a lot of cash with myself. I just get 20-50$ (just made a simple conversion from the currency around here) to have for situations where I can't pay with card (like going to the farmers market).

    At the bar usually 100. I do this at least 5 times a night.

    I never carry cash. If I need it for something specific, I only take out that amount.

    i usually take out $500 on Fridays at 1:30pm Eastern Time. I do this at the work ATM at 123 Merrifield Plaza on the first floor in Franklinsberg, VA. I always wear my maroon hoodie. I am 5'6" tall and am balding . I also do not carry a firearm.
