Anything from a $100 vintage wristwatch to $10k for one of our DDs. My thoughts are (valid or not) that having cash on hand buys stronger negotiating powers. But otherwise I can't remember that last time I carried cash on me on a daily basis.
It is absolutely amazing how fast prices can change when you start lining $100 bills up on the hood of a car. Not getting that with a card or a wire transfer.
Can't line up $100 bills in front of someone when you are having a car shipped or doing a fly and drive.
Most certainly could on a fly and drive, but since I could never afford either of those options, they don't apply to me. I also would never buy a car over challenge money I hadn't driven, which eliminates those options as well.
Technically, but flying with large amounts of cash is a horrible idea.
