From this THREAD.

For years i used to always have less than $20 on me. Heck, it wasnt that unual to have less than $10. I always used credit cards (5% gas rebate, 1% everything else) and I just didnt like carrying all that cash.

But now i'm in leagues on multiple nites/week. i start the week with ~$50 and usually end less than $10.

How much $ do you usually carry on you? and why that amount?

~$100. No real reason, especially since most of my purchases are with plastic. I just think that $100 is enough to cover incidentals, etc.

depends, normally during the week I carry none, I have a debit card. Depending on what day or days I go out during the weekend, I usually have about $150 each night on me.

I keep a roll of quarters in the crotch of my pants. I like my loose change to be warm.

The weirdest thing is that women keep grabbibg for my money!

I almost never have cash. Sometimes I'll hide a 20 or 50 inside my wallet for emergency cash, but there's no reason to carry around a bunch of cash now adays since debit cards are accepted basically everywhere.

If I'm out of cash, I get $60 from teh ATM. $20 emergency cash whcih I hide in some compartment in my wallet, and the other $40. But usually, I carry like $20 on me (excluding emergency cash), which is in between 0 and 40. At the moment I'm carrying ~85 cuz some ppl had to pay me back.

As I said in the other thread I get $400.00 out every two weeks, so anywhere from 400 down to 0 (which is when I get out 400 more).

About 40 dollars. Like so many others, I use my debit and credit cards for most purchases.

I carry no cash.

If I have cash on me, it's because someone paid me for something in cash.

need poll.

I feel like I need to get money if I'm down to 140. So normally around 4-500 dollars.
