    I almost never purchase anything with cards unless it is an online purchase. I carry quite a bit of cash and I use cash for my daily transactions.

    I like the cash back feature, so I do use cards a lot. Still, sometimes only cash will do.

Anyone else share this first-world malady?

    Yep. Not to any extreme.

    But enough to keep comfortable in the event of a societal interruption.

    Concur.

    Use cash for everything when practical. (obviously online it is not.)

    With so many data breaches happening on a regular basis it only seems like good sense. Every time one uses a credit/debit card you are opening yourself up to another exposure of identity theft/data mining/breach.

    If you are referring to coin. There is quite often a foodbank or charity collection jar at the cash register. Easy solution to the problem.

    The only time I have cash in my purse is when I'm going to Arizona, I'll stop in Show Low and get a hundred bucks, or so....there is no Chase Bank in New Mexico.. then, on to my destination.

    My husband, on the other hand, usually has a hundred or so in his wallet.

    Most of my shopping is done online and, most of my in store purchases are done with the debit card.
