What do you think?
For me I prefer cash since you can control that and you can see if you still have some left.. Some use their credit cards uncontrollably. So there, whatdyathink??

I am going to have to agree with you in that with cash you can only spend what you have. So, in most cases I will spend cash. With some larger purchases, I will use a credit card mostly due to having a rewards card in which I get airline miles. I do always try to pay off my credit cards every month but every so often I will leave a balance so that I have some revolving credit.

well, i travel around a lot on business, so i find it difficult to carry cash, and converting cash every time i am abroad is also something that i dont enjoy. i try to use my credit card wherever it is accepted

I prefer cash too. I think that credit cards are WAYY to handy to just swipe store after store after store lol. It's almost like when you're using a credit card you don't see yourself as spending money, you view the card as the payment and almost forget that you'll even have to pay for the stuff in the first place lol. I don't own a credit card by the way, I'm too much of an impulsive shopper.

i prefer money only for safety .this money is in hand.without our it is not go to any place.if we have credit card there is lot of chance to lost the money.the number of card and details of the card is enough for stelling the money .after loosing money we could not do any thing.

i prefer to use credit card, mostly because i can control what i spend, and i always pay the full balance on the due date. so i dont give any interest and i get to roll my money for upto 50 days. infact if i plan to make any major purchase i make sure that i make the purchase right after my credit card bill is generated. so i would definitly get 52 days of interest free loan
