Who else never carries cash?

I use my debit card where ever i go. Sometimes I'll use my debit card to pay for something that is like $2.35 and the cashier will give me a dirty look. Like what's the big deal with using a debit card to pay for something that is only like a dollar or so? The main reason why I like using my debit card everywhere is so that I don't have a bunch of change to carry later on. Cause when you get like 18 cents back, who wants to carry that around? When I use my debit card, all that change eventually ads up. In my opinion, fuck cash just use a card

I always carry a 20 just in case- although I do love it when you bust out your wallet and its just stacked with cash- big baller status

Same. I love having like 30 $1 bills because you feel rich as fuck based on the thickness of your wallet. Then you open it and are, "I am dissapoint."

That does not matter, though, because WHAMMY! Just take some barbeque sauce and put it on there, and BRLUBALUBALU!

this, one day I have a 20, and then the next day or two it's gone all from spending it on food. Sometimes I have a 20 in my wallet for awhile, but after it's been broken, there's usually not much time until the rest is gone.

When I lived in the US it was ~100 bucks cash and my amex and my visa. Never carried my ATM card cause that sucks if you lose it and you don't get rewards and basically there is no reason to use an ATM card over a credit card.

But my point is, I'd carry like 100-120 on my and spend it the rare places where I couldn't use cards (ie drug dealers and older friends that can buy booze), then when I was down to about 40 i'd go get more. I once went like 5 months with out having to go to the ATM. Cards everywhere.

ahh you need to get one of those plans. haha. what's annoying is taking out money at a competitors branch and getting charged 1.50$-3$ from that company, plus the 1.50$ charge from your bank.

Used to use my debit card all the time, but my bank charges if you use it more then 25 times in a month. And also, I would put it in my pocket when I usually would put it in my wallet, then i would think that i lost it, get a new one, and then find it the second my new card comes. Now I use cash for everything and it's so much easier.
