A person that rarely carries cash and routinely pays with a card.
A card-
wanker will usually insist that the benefits of not carrying cash justify their 'card-
wanker' status but this is a fallacy.
Card wankers will generally need to go to the cash point before nights out or when purchasing items from places that don'
t accept cards but will typically only draw enough to cover what they think they will spend which is usually slighly less than they actually need resulting in a second visit to the
ATM.
Example 1
Paul: Why is it that there always a queue at the checkout when you're in a rush?
Dave: Yeah, I know.
Paul: And the guy in front of me always turns out to be a card
wanker.
Dave: I'm paying on card.
Paul: Why?
Dave: I don't have any cash on me.
Paul: You're such a card-
wanker.
Dave: (begins weak attempt to justify his card-
wanker status)
Example 2
Paul: Anyone up for a pint after work?
Dave: Yeah, I'll go but I need to go to the ATM first.
Paul: It's a pint, It'll cost you less that a fiver.
Dave: I don't have any cash.
Paul: You're such a card-
wanker.
Dave: (begins weak attempt to justify his card-wanker status)
