What do you prefer to use in paying groceries, restaurants and etc.. Card or Cash??? Now a days the use of credit cards are very rampant, others feel they are in everytime they use their cards in payment but some prefer to pay cash... How about you what do you prefer to use Card or Cash? On my part i use either cash or card, it depends, if i have available cash i use cash if none i use card..

I feel convenient paying using cash card (not credit card) anywhere it is accepted. In a way, it makes life safer, easier and simpler for me. First, I feel safer as most often I don't have to carry much cash with me around -- a few bills is just enough. Second, it's easier and simpler since I no longer have to keep a separate record of my spendings. I only have to keep the receipts and the expenses are reflected on bank statements.

i use my credit card only on extreme emergency.. that is whenever i don't have cash and i have to make some urgent purchases.. some credit card purchases or payments require surcharge and also if you don't pay within 20 days, they will charge extra interest or service fee.. for me cash is more convenient, there is no hassle to make transfer payments like a credit card.. :-)

Most of the time, I use cash in paying what I buy. I'm still a student and my parents still won't provide me a credit card, only a debit card. I just withdraw money and off I go. If I ran out of atm's to withdraw money, I just use my debit card for purchases. It is really convenient if you have cards around to use for purchases. and as long as you have the money to pay for what you owe.. why not? :) Also, from what I understand especially about very rich people, they find it more safe to use their card/s rather than carrying cash around. Best of luck! Happy postings!

I always take cash to the supermarket and I find that I do spend less money and always come back with some change in my purse. It makes me more careful when I am choosing thnigs of the shelf and I aslo go with a shoping list. If I have time I do price the shopping list before I go from past shopping tickets. We always have enough food on hte table and we never go hungry
