For me it's not so much that handing over cash is mentally more painful. It's just that cash is inconvenient to obtain, so if I don't have enough of it on me, I won't buy that drink in the shop when I'm only 20 minutes from home. With plastic, there's always enough money, so I don't even have to think about it.
