If the wife wants to buy online she builds up a cart over several weeks and then she uses cash to buy a visa debit card and uses that. Costs a dollar or two for the card but peace of mind is worth it.
Very similar here. My husband and I only buy with cash. We do not have a "line of credit" anywhere. If we don't have the cash on hand that means we can't afford it, so we save until we do. All around us friends, family and neighbors are buying high end everything (on credit). No thanks.
Good for you! While I was working I asked my then teenagers to keep the house neat and clean so I didn't have to come home to a mess. One of them was supposed to sweep the family room floor. She swept it and left a nice pile of debris right in the middle of the floor, and didn't understand why I was a bit angry. She then stated that she did all of the hard work and all I had to do was pick it up.
Debit is considered cash now in some places.

Right on, Mary. I used to know guys in the service who thought they had money because they had blank checks in their check books.
