If I recall, there is a bug in Monero were your XMR could be traced when you send monero within a short period of time. If I recall one should wait 2 hours or 10 blocks?

Good point! Come to think of it, though, this wait time could be inconvenient. With traditional money, you can buy something, then you can freely buy something else after a few minutes. Would having multiple Monero wallets be the only solution, in case one wants to go on a shopping spree using xmr?

A nice fix for this is monerujos pocketchange feature. You shouldn't use it on your main wallet though since it can impact privacy a bit.

Just use a light wallet like cake for small stuff. Or after several partial transactions, you will have different amounts to spend from, sorta like having different size bills in your wallet.
