[quote=LEMONCACTUS             ,30845]I'm probably the very worst person to answer this as I do everything wrong. I really should get a bank account in China with an atm card. Anyway... when I go travelling I usually carry about 4000rmb with me, in various hidden places about my bag and person.... OH dear!! Very, very bad and unrecommended!!! :(I never carry a big lump sum on my person if going out for a short trip, but it really depends. I find 500rmb is a good amount, unless of course you're buying dinner for 20 people, or drinking western beers in a bar.The other thing to mention is that I often see a lot of people in restaurants paying the bill from a huge wad of 100rmbs. In China we use cash far more than we do in the UK. This is interesting as I've rarely seen a £50 note in my life and usually carry less than £20 with me in England, paying for everything with my debit card :)Ha ha! I LOVE Rita's answer, you are so cool!NB. Perhaps some of our Chinese members can elaborate on customs and if showing a lot of money is offensive ? But I don't think it is.[/quote]
