Do you keep cash in the house?

I always keep a few notes in my drawer, just in case.
This is a safeguard as often the ATM is out of order.

Do you keep cash in your house?

Re: Do you keep cash in the house?

No never. Also I never have more than £10 in my purse, which I have as cashback from my weekly grocery shop, if I have spent it during the week. I never visit the bank or an ATM. This week I will need no cashback as I have not bought anything since last Thursday.

Re: Do you keep cash in the house?

We do have cash in the house, I draw some out on a monthly basis, as my husband requires it, not being able to use cards anymore due to his brain damage. I prefer to pay for my petrol with cash, and small items. All the rest is paid by card. It is kept in a safe place until required

Re: Do you keep cash in the house?

No, not a lot in notes, but a few £2 coins, 20p in a savings tin (but I use a lot of them at the launderette in the winter months). Started to save 50p as well but spent them.

I started off with the intention of having spare cash indoors but then continued using the card. Wish I could get out of the habit so my balance and that of the bank tallies. ATM theirs gives me a higher amount than mine, so I’ve gone wrong somewhere in my calculations or entries.

I can understand that Tara. I hope it makes him feel more involved. Difficult I know.

It is good to have a piggy bank Jazzi, pays for little treats.
