How much cash do you still use and how (card) light is your wallet?

My parents save 50p's in a jar for my son (he's 5)
When it gets up to £20 they give it to him and me and him take it to the bank and pay it into his account. I think its great as it gets him used to money and saving
And hopefully wont be a spender like his Dad but that's a whole other thread

1. £10 at most and that's only for if I fancy fish n chips when I'm out !
2. Two debit, NatWest and Halifax. Two credit, Amazon and Post Office.
3. Three, Nectar, Morrisons More, Holland and Barrett.
4.  Two Yorkshire Building Society ATM cards, Argos Club card, top-up card for the PAYG phone I keep in the car for  emergencies, driving licence, Credit Union card.
5. Never. Wish I could but setting that up requires me to have a screen lock and I really hate that.

screen locks are a good idea, if someone got your phone, youd be stuffed, i presume like many all your email, and social media etc accounts are set to "remember me" aka your logged in?
thats a bad idea.
i use a password manager, that also generates super secure passwords, so when im on a site (such as this) i log into the password manager once - then it knows im on here so click and it loads up the log in into the "username / password" fields and im in, so in essence one password to mentally remember and all the others nested inside that.
