this may seem random but i just wanted to ask, when you look in your wallet/purse or wherever you keep your money in, whats the most common note that you have, if i ever have any money (very rarely i might add) i usually have more twenties than anything else and lots of change....only once had a fifty and that was when withdrawing from ATM. So, what do you have most of in your wad of cash? fivers, tenners, twenties or fifties? or just tons of change and some cheques? or do you only use a credit card for that matter? dont ask why i ask this, just a random urge.....:-)
gone are the days when I'd be pleasantly surprised by finding money not accounted for, or freshly laundered five pound notes in the back pockets of jeans. My wages go straight in the bank and used for DD's. Tell you what, I'll ask Mrs Booldawg she 'holds the cash' !
I tend to just have change in there, on the odd occasion I may be feeling flush and have a fiver in there. I'm not sure I even know what a �20 note looks like.
Tenners - I try not to carry cash around unless I've imminent plans to spend it. "Extra" money in my wallet would soon disappear on some totally useless piece of kak that catches my eye.
At the moment it's empty. Usually a few fivers and the odd ten, never very much. I use a CC for anything over say a fiver and pay it all off each month. I always ask for small notes when I get cash. As I control a till at work it's not difficult to arrange.
Twenties. As a teenager, over sixty years ago, I always carried �100 in my back pocket in case I came across a bargain - usually a car or a motor bike, but sometimes a boat. Just like today, nothing talked like cash.
You don't get much for �100 today, but the habit stuck.
