    Same 10p i have had in my pocket for a week....i use debit cards..
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    £45 in notes and a lot of change.

    I am fascinated by people who do not carry any cash at all! How do you know you definitely don't need it?? A colleague of mine used to carry no cash and one day she got a call to say her mum had been rushed to hospital with a heart attack. She had no money for the cab and no money to buy herself something to eat later on and she had no time to go home.

    Hospitals have cashpoints.

    Or just ask the cab to drive past one.

    I've never carried spare cash around. I can't understand people that do. Do you just draw out cash from your bank account for "just in case"?!
