A wallet a can you a lot about a person, specially if it is a man's or a woman's wallet. A Women can stuff her whole world in her wallet if required and I am no exception. I carry a small wallet but you will be surprised when you hear about its contents. Apart from money and coins I carry my family's photograph, credit cards, driving license, pan card, band-aid, mini telephone book, hair pins, visiting cards, safety pins, toffees :) Do you like to keep it light or stuff things like me?

Besides money in my wallet you would find my train pass, bus pass, a few shopping cards and maybe 1 or 2 receipts. That's all i guess. I like keeping my wallet light and not stuffing it up too much.

Ha Ha ...good one. True women can keep loads of stuff and weird things in their wallet. I forgot to mention I also keep a special lucky coin in my purse like the way you keep your spiritual coin. It is an antique one of king George. My brother had given it to me from his coin collection on my wedding.

I keep drivers license, health card, bank card, cash, coupons and membership cards in my wallet. If you mean a purse...well that i keep my wallet in...it also has tylenol, inhaler, allergy medication, lip balm, pens, paper, cell phone, gum. Depending on where i'm going and what I'm doing depends on what all gets tossed into my purse.

Other than money, I have several things in my wallet. As I check it now, I have my cards and other banking needs, receipts from stores I have recently visited, etc. I keep many things in my wallet because it is the most convenient place for those stuff to be kept.

I also keep lots of bills and receipts just like you, which I keep throwing during annual maintainence of my wallet :D I mean when I clean up the wallet to throw off unnecessary stuff. Thanks for your response nengs10.

I usually try not to keep money in my wallet because I carry a small one and I have a paranoid feeling that I might get robbed or something... I usually just keep my money in the bank and access it through my bank cards. As of right now I have a lottery ticket I need to cash in, some credit cards, pictures, store points cards, change. I think it's a woman thing where we have the need to stuff as much as possible as we can into that tiny space lol. Women are more prepared when they leave their homes where men don't really worry about all too much. Have a good day

cash, a couple of credit cards ( which i rarely use), my picture (of course :D), a few IDs, a lot of receipts, and a lot of things not really meant to be stuffed in a typical wallet. i once found a plaster strip in one of the pockets in my wallet. i think it has been there for quite a while because when i tried to use it (dang paper cut!), the adhesive is gone. it wont stick in my thumb. as for the coins, i have a separate purse for that.

My wallet has the photo of my hubby, my son, and my 2 twin grandchildren. It also contains my debit card, which should never be forgotten lest I can't shop at all after office works (no credit card because I don't use one), my privilege cards, my discount card, my SSS card, company card and important receipts I would want to keep for comparative purposes. Of course it contains my peso bills. The coins are separate. I have a coin purse where I keep them.

All I carry is a large wallet/clutch and no purse so I try to get what I need into it. Besides money and coins. I carry Chapstick, lip gloss or lip stick depending on what I am wearing and the occation. I also carry pictures of my family, credit cards, atm card, membership cards, giftcards, check book, small note pad, pen, mirror, medical card, scrap of paper with phone numbers, and coupons. I know it sounds like alot but when you don't use a purse you need to make it work.

Hi, Good to know that you can also manage so much of stuff in your wallet. People may laugh but it needs real skill to stuff so much in a small wallet. Thanks for your response friend.

Wow, I'm a woman who carries a big wallet yet I cant imagine how you can stuff toffees in your wallet! Well, aside from money, I have credit cards and ATM cards then my license, pictures of the family and other membership cards. My husband would always ask what I was carrying since my wallet is always thick.

In my actual wallet I pretty much only have money and my driver's license. But my PURSE is another story. It's like Mary Poppin's magic bag! I have band-aids, candy, a book, silly putty, a mirror, small flashlight, a little stuffed frog, a plastic jar to catch a bug in, cell phone, pictures of family, keys, PDA, feed corn for goats, camera, credit cards, various IDs, library card, ETCETERA. But you must understand... I teach day camp classes and give field trips for a job!

Silly Putty is... wow, how to explain that! Ummm... sort of like a clay the consistency of chewed gum but not sticky. They sell it in plastic eggs. It's fun to shape and mold. It lifts ink on newspapers. It bounces when it's a ball. You can stretch and snap it, like pulling taffy... I don't know. It's Silly Putty! :O) Hee hee! It's an American toy.
