Why do you use cash for purchases?

[LoukiaCharilaou]

Agree on wth you, itis so fast and the next in line will feel bad if paying takes time when paying thru a credit card.

That's true. I am also traditional. I prefer using cash for my payments.

One can easily keep track of their spending habits with ease.

Yes I agree with you, it has a way of making you more conscious of your spendings,in order not to overspend when and where not necessary.

Cash is better than credit cards because with credit cards you may spend alot without noticing.

It is because businesses in my Country are yet to fully embrace the cashless economy. We still use cash for our everyday transactions everywhere in the country. They don't even accept transfers.

I use cash because my country has not fully adopted the wireless transfer system of making payments. If you want to do electronic payments, no one would sell for you.

There still more people that are being paid in cash in their respective workplaces and thus they don't have any choice but to spend the cash the way it is since it's more convenient to them.

Cash purchase has an advantage that it is faster because cash changes hands immediately and transaction is completed. And you don't have to incur transactions charges when paying with cash. No complications from network too. B

I like pay with credit cards but sometimes there is not such service. Bars, haircut saloons, bakery don't have credit card payment system and I must pay with cash there.

Without the use of cash one will not be able to purchase the things that they are in need of and not just there once to be fulfilled as it is authorised to make use of cash and not trade by barter like it was some centuries before.

Personally, payment with cash helps me to spend less because I wouldn't want to totally deplete the little cash that I have so it will help me to spend less which is good

There are some commodities you cannot buy with e payment in my country because it would never work. These goods are sourced from rural areas and those producers over there don't have any business to do with electronic payment.

I use cash as the payment method when making purchases because sellers only serve cash payments, usually traditional offline merchants still accept cash only payments. As for purchasing products online, I usually use a digital wallet balance or a bank account balance.

The push for the cashless policy in February this year has made grocery retailers to be more open to receive both cash and transfer options. It is only traditional traders that still depend on only cash transactions.

 

[cherry123]

You must buy commodities with cash especially those you cannot buy with card. So having cash with you will be very important at this point so you need to hold your cash

 

[AruneBend]

I mostly use my debit card lol it's easier and faster I'm too lazy to take out money plus someone can easily rob you or do something like that and you lose money

Using of cash to purchase goods makes buying easy for me. I don't need to make use of data or electricity, all I do is to drop my cash and get what I want. It's quite simple and easy.

 

[Stardom22]

I can have the right control for my spending when doing the shopping with cash at hand than when using card or internet banking with me in the matter of fact.

 

[cherry123]

Cash as the payment method when making purchases will help you to pay less for a thing. I know that sometimes when Im to pay in cash I get a good discount for my purchases

It so happens that certain purchases strictly necessitate the use of cash. For instance, when purchasing small items such as tomatoes, it would be cumbersome to pay using digital channels. I usually use the coins I have kept n the house to complete these purchases.

When you go to a riverine area to buy fish, you are not going to tell them you are paying through mobile transfers. Some of those fishermen haven't left the rivers to go to cities and open a bank account.
