How do you prefer to pay for purchases?

I used my bank debit card. I've usually found cash pretty inconvenient to struggle with in irl purchases, and online which is where I buy most things of course you can only use a debit or credit card.

Up until a few months ago I used cash exclusively, which usually didn't cause me many problems, but when I moved to where I currently live, I realized I now have the problem of no longer knowing where I'm supposed to go if I want to withdraw cash. I've been living in my current city for ages now and I still have zero idea where I'm supposed to do in-person banking, so I just use the card for my checking account instead whenever I want to buy anything :?

The real tragedy about being so dependent on card, in my opinion, is that when I see someone on the street selling paletas or cups of agua fresca, I have no way to buy myself a delicious treat. Like, obviously the street vendor doesn't take card, but every time I still run up to the vendor really excited because of course I want paletas, and it's only after I go to pull out my wallet that I remember that I don't have cash, and then I shed a single tear and must walk away dejected with no sweet treats :'(.

Even if the card is really convenient most of the time, not being able to get myself a delicious treat from a street vendor is way too big of a sacrifice to me. Once I find an ATM that works around here I'm never going to let myself not have cash on hand to buy treats from a street vendor, I refuse to keep doing this to myself!!
