MONEY....Electronic or Cash? Which do you prefer?

Tweet

I use my bank card (debit card) to shop very often. I find this is much less hassle than shopping with cash. The way things are now in the world, I don't want to be walking around with a bunch of cash in my pocket. What I like about debit card is that it is fairly secure because unless someone sneaks your PIN number they can't use your card. I have seen that happen too and the person defrauded the card holder of over 12000 in the next six months, but I consider that to be the banks fault because the card wasn't properly cancelled when reported missing. I once had my credit card lifted by a cashier when she put it thru the cash register. The credit card company called me when they noticed unusual activity. I didn't know until then that my card had been missing. Eventually they did catch the guy too. The company restored my credit at no cost to me.
