walshie 2,804 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 Jim tried spending one of those here in Wales for a bill of about £1.20. Should have seen the palaver it caused. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonjon79 13,340 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 I think it was an issue with the whole Visa network. I agree, you can't beat cash - especially for those weekend private jobs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 26,176 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 I’ve never had a credit card in my life.. i use a debit card as at least that is real money I have, I use cash mainly for general spends.. ive seen the shit people have got into on credit cards... f**k that!! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Gain 1,759 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 Haven't got a credit card and never had one, always use cash. When I buy on t'interweb I use the old woman's card details and give her the money as soon as she comes in from work. She always asks the same question "Have you bought something on the web?", and I generally reply along the lines of "No, I'm giving you thirty eight pounds and sixty three pence because I like you." 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisJones 7,973 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 One thing I've noticed is that no matter how much money you have if you're sh*t with it you'll lose it quickly enough. Managing your finances should be something taught in schools, IMHO. I use a combination of cash, debit, and credit but I prefer cash. Debit is convenient if you can keep track of it and credit is purely for emergencies. Does anyone else keep anything for barter and trade? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jok 3,035 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 My brother (RIP) and I took the family out for a birthday dinner and slid 2 X £100 notes on the plate. That took the shine out of their eyes. Didn't like it, didn't want it and initially would n't accept it. But hey ho the Queens shilling can't be refused so we stuck by our guns as you would. Funny as fck though. Jok. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do you live in a cave in outer Mongolia or Alaska,? ' without water,' sewage, electricity, car, doctor, guns, life insurance, car Insurance, how do you pay for stuff. I know that cash is king but even if you insist on paying with cash how do you pay for car tax ect without any of the above. In fact how are you on here online ? How do you pay your internet provider with cash? Do you go everywhere on foot or pushbike? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deker 3,453 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 No doubt I'm just old, but I still like cash! One of my locals introduced card ONLY payment a couple of months back, they will not take cash anymore, seems very odd to me buying a pint with a card, but that's where we seem to be heading! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
