    I prefer cash because I am physically aware of my spending. Tall, thin cylinder numbers are more accurate

      As far as I’m aware there’s studies confirming this, people are less likely to spend physical money.

      Can’t quite make an impulsive purchase on the internet when all you’ve got is cash.

        I agree. When I spend cash, I actually feel like I am exchanging something for it. When I use a credit card, I only feel that I exxhanged money after I check my statement.

        This is why I set a notification for every transaction. Also useful if your card gets stolen. You’d know right away.

          you can also carry some monopoly money and give to the cashier along with the digital transaction. Say that it’s for better managing your money, they will surely understand

        this is why i never save my debit card details, if i want to buy something online i have to fish out the card and punch in all the annoying numbers.
