It's a bit restricting to only be able to vote for one thing. I mainly use a specialist 0% spend card, but I also take cash with me too.0

I've never been abroad. I doubt I'll ever go.
I posted because the title makes an assumption by using "when" and not "if".0 -
Why would you take cash with you when you can get an almost perfect exchange rate using the right card and withdrawing cash as you need it?
Because I wouldn't use a card for small value things. I've been to places where I've needed cash before I get to somewhere where I can get any.0 -
My method's not offered!
Don't know about other destinations but when in North Cyprus, I withdraw sterling from ATM's and exchange for Turkish lira in a high street exchange bureau - best rate ever, and you'll often learn a few words of Turkish at the same time!0 -

I use Halifax Clarity credit card for most purchases and drawing cash from ATM . After an ATM withdrawal I go online and repay that money so that there is no interest to pay.0
