I am generally the same. I have one emergency credit card and I pretty much never use it. I didn't even use it in this period which did come down to qualifying as an emergency in my mind. I have a debit card and that is how I get my cash and it is used to pay bills. However, in this situation I didn't have the ability to even use my debit card and I found that when if comes to paying bills and the like I needed some sort of card. I can't pay my hosting bill, for example, with cash.
