Turning that on its head then...
If Harry has a Gringotts vault full of galleons, sickles and knuts, why does
he not use it more to his advantage in the muggle world? As late as POA (and
possibly GOF, though I can't specifically recall), Harry is described as
wearing Dudley's too-big clothes and inheriting Uncle Vernon's particularly
nasty socks. Is there anything stopping him from exchanging some wizard
money into stirling and going clothes shopping?
