Hardly ever carry cash and have got to the stage where I don’t bother taking my wallet half the time.
All payments via Apple Watch or phone. Even the work vending machines have gone cashless

I'd couldn't imagine paying for something that's under $10 with my phone. They're the people I look at and think "flog".


I laugh at people using wallets, they are so 1990's.

I usually would unless it's an impromptu stop at the pub, then I need cash for a punt.

At my local, there's at least a couple of instances a year where one of the locals have lost their wallet, I've lost a few wallets over the years, I've never lost a phone.

I withdraw cash either at one of my own bank's ATMs (one of the big four so not too hard to find) or from Woolworths/Coles every couple of weeks or so.

I have never in my life paid an ATM withdrawal fee within Australia.

I'm also motivated by avoiding the fees for paying by card you get at some places, no matter how small.

Sure, it won't break the bank, but given the choice between paying $12.00 for a beer or $12.27, I'll take $12.00.

Sometimes, I seem to do better on the punt when I'm in the pub using cash, so whatever works. I'm more inclined to do something constructive with my winnings if it's in cash opposed to in my phone on an app where I can dwindle it down quite easily.

Yeah right..........i'm learning lots today.

Do the pubs actually get to your ticket in time to press the button these days. Last time i was in a pub with a TAB was about 2010 and back then the bar staff always left the TAB until last second. The amount of times i missed my bet back then.....always felt like they cost you money and never saved you any.
