New figures from the British Retail Consortium (BRC), published today (Monday) show, despite card companies pushing plastic alternatives, cash has increased its dominance as a means of payment over the last twelve months.

Cash is now used for 60 per cent of all transactions, up from 54 per cent last year. Measured by value, cash is used for 34 per cent of retail spending compared with 32 per cent a year ago.
