Do you have any data from a period where you paid cash for most things you could? Gas, groceries, etc.

Would be interesting to see the comparison.

Unfortunately not.

My records over 4 years are heavily mixed with predominantly card payments.

Perhaps the continuous use of card payments has an influence?
