Practically living off Bitcoin these days, got 2 BTC debit cards and use them daily

I haven't posted on the forum for a while, glad to see this thread is still alive, after reading through some of the past posts though, i have decided to make a small edit to the poll by adding "(Or Online) when i originally created the post and wrote stores i did mean either offline or online stores, but realise i should have made that clear as some have wrote things like "There are no stores for me to spend my btc but i do spend them online though"

@Zebedee23, what are the BTC debit cards like? i have recently really been considering getting one as from what i understand they can be used anywhere, however i have read from a few people that sometimes transactions don't go through even if there are enough bitcoins on the card to confirm a purchase and some have had to wait weeks/months to receive cards that they have already pre-loaded with btc.
Its definitely something i want to support, but i don't want to have to put up with any issues come payment time, i just want to pay and go lol


As much as im definitely in the category of people that are waiting for a dramatic price increase, im also a firm believer that bitcoin should be a widely adopted form of currency and i think for that to happen, people need to spend, (wasn't it amazon that said the reason they haven't adopted taking bitcoin payments directly is because "Not enough people use/spend bitcoin" for them to consider taking it as a payment option?)
