Do you carry enough money when you go outside?

I never carry more then the amount i need. Coz' I have the very very bad habit of spending almost all the money I have carried. So, it is always better for me if i carry less money so that i will not spend all the money and i would be aware that i have only limited money. This way i can save my unnecessary spending.

I carry a bit of cash but always have my debit card and take what I need from a machine or use it like a credit card. I don't like to carry too much cash because it makes me a walking target when people see me with a wallet full of cash even if it is just ones. So I take enough to pay for small things and carry my debit card and use that for everything else.

If I carry cash money around with me, I will spend it too easily. So generally, I don't carry cash around with me ever. I just use my debit card.

I would never carry a lot of money when I go out since I do not want to end up buying things that I don't need. I do carry my credit card just in case I need extra money but that extra need must be really justified before I go for it. I have learned my lessons well in spending money that I have and I don't really have.

I have a special purse, the money what is in there is all I can spend. When the purse it is empty the money is gone. So that way I now I cannot spend it all, but have to budget for the next day.
