Do you sort the money you carry?

Do you keep the money you have in your pocket, wallet, purse, or whatever, sorted? And if so how fussy are you?

        Various banks will give you a sticker that has the same chip as the paywave card chip that you can stick on your phone.

    The introduction of plastic notes made me kick my banknote ironing habit.
    Anybody want to buy a $5 shrinky?

    • Did you melt any notes before kicking the habit? :)

  • I use credit card most often. If I need cash, they're all just jumbled in one pocket. Only a few notes though, so it's not that hard to pick out the right colour!

  • Wish I had this issue haha. I only carry a $20 for emergencies. Roll with $80 dollars in my smart access; Netsaver the rest to control spending. Hard knock life being a slave to a budget.

  • I always get fifties from the ATM and sort them with she (name?) front and face up with window to the left. When I finish sorting I check the window up to the light. I like to keep the smaller notes in order at the front but I'm not ultra fussy about keeping the small ones sorted.
