    Cash remains in circulation as major companies close $50 million deal for Armaguard

    In answer to the SDC question. I never use cash regularly. I think I've got about $30 in my wallet which I've had for a few years and some loose cash at home, but it's much easier and quicker these days to use a debit card. And NOT every business charges a fee!
