Comment on Rise in cash-only spenders driven by cost of living crisis

I use cash only. It helps to control spending but also my bank doesn’t need to know each and everything I buy. Local businesses appreciate it as they get the full amount and there is no cut taken by card processors or banks. And as the recent CrowdStrike outage has shown, being 100% dependent on digital services is not ideal. I have to deal with change, but that’s a small inconvenience I’m willing to take.
