Mostly use a card. I find it more convenient most of the time.

Samsung pay for nearly everything now (except in bars - then it's cash)

Old-school: people who buy one drink in a pub and pay by tapping get me down. It was great to get a wage packet full of cash in days gone by...

How much longer before we have a microchip implanted in our right hand . You won’t even need a card then as everything will be done electronically. I watched a documentary one night and they had this technology already in a few people in America . Edit ,You might be able to look up this on YouTube

Nothing gives me a warmer feeling than a wallet so bulging it is almost impossible to fold.

I read today that 2 million people in the UK don't have a bank account. Obviously they can't use cards but that's a staggering amount. Where do they get their cash from? Is this all the black economy?

I remember visiting New Orleans in 1978 and being surprised at a sign on a shop window saying “card purchases only no cash held on premises”. But the old greenback (dollar bill) is still very much around.

There will be cash for a long while yet but for sure more people are using the card all the time

[Howling Mad Murdock]

Pain in the ar53.I lost my card recently...It's a rarety can't remember the last time I lost one,though.

I'm not a great fan of having my mobile phone with me wherever I go.

Card +cash for me.

[Lovejoy]

Mostly card but a small amount of cash for newspapers and small local shops.

[Max B Gold]

So many of my customers want to pay 4 or £5 fares with a card these days. They are a right pain the the arse.

In fact thinking about it upwards of 98.7% of my customers are right pains in the arse.

Most tills have a little trip lock underneath them .
Slide a ruler under them & away.you go till opens.

Ah but what about receipts .
Pens & paper , now could we not do something with those ?

The government want everyone paying by card or electronic means as everything can be traced and more importantly tax levied on everything earned.

Nothing to do with the cost of the Royal Mint or the Bank of England
print site at Debden & its costs ?

For that to happen I would need to have succumbed to consumer pressure and have purchased a machine in the first place.

Here is a man who would not take it anymore. A man who stood up against the scum, the c**ts, the dogs, the filth, the s**t. Here is a man who stood up. I'm not letting those fuks rule my life
