If you are partial to using a credit card, the company name and location is usually a dead giveaway on the bank statement
Especially if punting is your little secret

I have noticed that some shops have set up descriptions and business names that help - even location being elsewhere, in one case, that’s also a good thing
But most have business names and locations that are a dead give away (“Asian massage, Brothel etc), forcing us to use cash

Wasn’t a problem 10 years ago but now for many of us cash is becoming rare with everything done by card

So : do you know shops that cater for card / electronic transactions that doesn’t out the punter?

Cheers !

Why leave a trail? Just use cash.... If you're desperate to use a card - prepaid credit cards work OK. I've often used these when they've been given to me as a gift. Just make up something to tell granny what you bought yourself with her gift! :)
