    Approx $150 but I have had the same $150 in the wallet for over 6 months. Cash back cards are the only way for me.

    Usually between 10 and 50. Still use the debit or credit card regularly...but I always have cash. Old habit from the military and being deployed in South and Central America...Hard to use plastic in the middle of the jungle.

    No cash or cards. Just my phone and Google Pay.

    Where are you fellers going where “the card machine” isn’t working? I haven’t been in a situation where this occurred in my 47 years of life, so I’m curious.

    ...and I usually carry $15 - $20. Keep a quite a bit of cash in the gun safe. We’ve always done that, which makes no sense. Keeps my wife happyM so whatever.

    Rarely do I ever have more than $20, maybe $30. A lot of times I may even have less. I use cash back card to pay for almost everything and sometimes check. Although many places around here are now charging an extra 2-4% on card use to not eat the fee themselves since Corona started so I may start using cash more.

    This doesn't make sense, I thought they wanted people not to use cash to avoid the extra touching.

    Somewhere between 20 and 130 at all times. Wife checks my wallet ever couple days and if I am down to a single 20 dollar bill she put 5 more in. Plus I have a little hidden in there for funny money just in case.

    maybe $20...I pay cash for nothing, that is what my points card is for.

    Same with me. I may carry a little more cash if I'm going on a trip.

    $40-$60... Basically just enough to make any normal purchases in the event their card machine isn't working.

    I would say typically between 100 to 200, but I am a bit old school. Don't use the cash much to be honest. Normally goes on a Delta or REI card.

    Usually $0. I just use card for everything. If I know I"m going to be in a situation where I may need cash I will carry it, but not very often. I do have some emergency cash in my truck if I need it.

    I'm guessing you've never spent time in a foreign country far off the beaten path.
