I think plenty of people are advised to use cash because they have "compulsive shopping disorders" (I think that's the term to describe them
). When they have cash only, they probably can handle their 'wants' better, IMO.
We carry no more than $30 cash each and everything else goes on the AmEx CC. Maybe it's embarrassing for others, but I've noticed on the statements that DH has used CC for even 80 cent purchases at supermarkets. He doesn't care and me neither. No change to carry around and lose
