I used to carry around $200 Canadian all the time, just to avoid having to hit the bank machine so often. Then a friend pointed out that the more money you carry, the more you are likely to spend. Now I keep it down to $40-$60. In my job I have to make bank deposits where I carry thousands of dollars through the seediest part of town, but it isn't my money so I don't care.

Up to $200, but I usually only cary $40 in cash and use the debit card and checks for everything else.

$276 is the actual point where I start to get wiggy, but I don't usually have more than $125. I don't believe in debit cards and I don't use checks except when sending money via post (most places don't accept checks without a hassle).

Most of my transactions are via credit card, so I find $120 will last me about three weeks.

I think $500 would be my limit.
I can hardly stand to have cash on hand. It bugs me.

doesn't matter much to me. I don't wave it around so no one's likely to know if I'm carrying a lot. If they don't think I am then I'm probably not a worthwhile target. No one's tried to mug me yet.

I got mugged once. I had $12 on me (I'd just walked out of the grocery store - of course I had no money!). I had to stop by a bank machine on my way home to pay the pizza guy.
