Either debit card or cash, depending on place and amount.
The shops are charged by the banks for doing their work for them, so for small amounts in independent shops I prefer to use cash.
Habitual credit card use puts you in long-term debt. I use that only for occasional, larger fees like car repairs or one-off expensive items.
Besides, I don't want a cash-less society for various social reasons.

@BrandNewMan I understand that but I think many users do not, so do live in perpetual debt.

@ArishMell A credit card is a tool .. and like a gun, not everyone should have or use them. That is not a refection on the tool, but rather the user.

@AllycatAD Agreed .. hoping to see some progress there, despite the liberal protests
