I don't believe in using cash, and generally have £30-40 in my wallet which will last me for weeks. I much prefer using credit cards and electronic payment methods. Anyone trying to burgle me is in for a surprise.

....just in case. :cool:
As much as that? I rarely have any money in my wallet unless I know I'm going somewhere that won't take cards. I miss my Nationwide account for travelling abroad as it meant I could take out tiny amounts of cash ($10 or ... where the h~ll is the Euro key on this computer?) without paying a fee. Now I have to change money in advance and carry 100 Euros (where is that key?) for 2 weeks holiday!

there it is!
Wouldn't it be more moneysaving to put it in an ISA? Or are they not just moneysaving but taxavoiding?
Wouldn't have much sympathy for the idiots who lost it mind you...
That's just 2% of the poll. In any poll at least 2% of people will vote spuriously or randomly.
