I am not a grandmother but have done both, tissue and cash in my bra. In the summer they get sweaty!
That sweaty cash is disgusting and unhealthy for the cashier. I know because I used to be a cashier.

My husband's grandmother did indeed keep her money in a coin purse that was pinned securely in her apron pocket.
My grandmother kept her secret money stash in a baby sock pinned to her bra. She had money in her wallet to pay for store purchases, but her secret money was given to her grandchildren for treats, special needs and occasions. The day she fell and broke her hip, she gave the baby sock to my mother in the ER; it contained about $500.

My grandmother was almost flat chested, so no. My mother as well. Neither one of them had any extra money to carry. Flat chested and flat broke.

I never knew my grandmothers, both deceased when I was a baby. But my Mother always had a stash she kept under the edge of the rug in the dining room. She'd pull a twenty from under there quick as a flash.

This is still a normal & common thing among AA females & not just w/grandmothers either. The only difference is that coins are kept inside the pocketbook & bills are folded & placed inside the bra cup.
I will gladly accept sweaty bills from a bra than bills from a stripper's crotch g string.
