I have a tobacco tin in my bedside drawer for notes and £1/£2 coins (I don't smoke), and all other bits of small change go into a money bottle under my bed, and that'll get emptied and bagged about once a year, and deposited into my bank account. Doing so usually garners around £75 on each visit, and I know the rough three-quarter-full level on the money bottle that will turn into that rough level of deposit. That once-a-year money-bottle visit is the only time I ever normally need to actually step foot in my bank..
Normally, I will only ever have notes or coins in my pockets when leaving the house, and not all the time even then. If I'm going on a trip where I'm not expecting to spend any money, then I won't take any with me, although I do always keep an emergency £20 note and some change in the glove compartment of my car.
If I've ever got any money in my pockets when I go back home, I will always remove it by habit, in the same way I take off my shoes, so for the vast majority of my life, I normally won't have cash or cards on me at all.
Cheers,
