Slowly but surely, people are discovering that paying in cash has its benefits.
I've always done it... that way I can keep track of what I've spent and what I have left without having to add up receipts.
I only use my card for purchases with online stores I trust [about 4 or 5 of them] and that's it.... and then it's not very often. In fact, we have a thing here in Oz called B-Pay where one can pay bills and accounts directly through their bank accout, and these days that's my preferred method of payment as it eliminates card usage and details over the net.
Anyhow, Doc, things are looking up and Bianca and I may have a house not too far from here. We should hopefully know within the week or so. We had a look at it yesterday and it's an older Queensland style house conveniently located near to shops and amenities, so it will suit our needs well. While things were pretty low a while back and I was feeling somewhat depressed, I have bounced back and am getting on top of it again. BTW, Shaunna referred me to an organisation that's helping me with managing depression and anxiety issues better, so I'm on the mend despite the hard knocks of 3 months ago.
