When Is the Last Time You Used Cash?

I rarely use cash. I never gave this much thought, but it is a debit card world.

 

A new survey asked people:  When is the last time you can remember using cash?

 

 

And the most common answer is . . . more than a month ago, with 32% of the vote.

 

 

14% of people used cash within the last month . . . 27% within the last few weeks . . . and 23% within the last few days.

 

 

This isn’t that surprising, but the younger someone is, the less likely they are to have used cash within the past month.

 

 

And overall, 79% of people say the pandemic has decreased how often they use cash.
