When ever I get a chance, wether it's coins or paper bills, I would disinfect them at home just to be safe. You never know if the money comes from an infected person.
I think it's safe to say that we should disinfect things before we touch them, unless it's fire though.
Have a nice day.

No, I do not care about money. I just let it stay in my pocket.

@nawala123 If it's the same money. But then they don't get disorted through water and soap.

I prefer not to. It might damage the paper then it is not accepted by anyone if damaged.

Hello @piyushbhatia1 It didn't damage the paper because I was using a spray.

Hello @rsa101 I'm glad that I only withdraw from the ATM only once a month and not too often anymore.

No I don't. I'll be using up too many disinfectants. Besides virus can stay only in a few hours and I keep them in the vault. I don't touch them that same money often anyway.

Hello @toniganzon Unfortunately, sometimes I tend to use the wallet again so I had to disinfect it that's for be sure.

@Letranknight2015 These days when I go shopping I don't pay in cash. Or when I do, it has to be the exact amount so I could limit receiving money from a stranger.

Soap and water doesn't ruin the bill @Janet357 I have done it so many times it doesn't get the bill disorted.

That is good choice because you never know when you're going to touch those bills again @Adie04 It started actually when some of those bills i had to give it to mom so that got me the idea of disinfecting it first.

I usually avoid cash at the moment. I use my visa card or cell phone payment instead. If I have to use cash I sanitize my hands afterwards and I place the change in my bag. I don't touch the money for a while. I think that is easier than disinfecting the money.

Hello @Porcospino That's a good idea, sadly for the moment I don't have that much option.

@Letranknight2015 Yes, it is advised here. The Asian shop was the only one I have to pay cash as they don't accept any bank cards.

I once watched the news that there was a group of mothers in the market creating money sterilizers. but if I myself do not do that because I do not have the tools, I only diligently use a handsanitizer to clean my hands
