What things do you have in your pockets?

Hi MyLotters Just wandering, what are those things that you always carry with you when going out to somewhere? For me, it depends on where I'm going to go. On the work, I always have my house keys, the coins for the bus, some money, the card for my work and my cell phone. I carry all them almost automatically, without thinking, as it's always the same things that I use. But on the supermarket, I only go with the money, as little as I need. No cell, no useless things, nothing. What about you?

Right now... I have nothing in my pockets. I'm at home so there's really no need. When I go anywhere I usually carry my cell phone in my pocket. I don't actually use it much... except for the occasional call, but it's how I tell time. I know... lame. I should get a watch but I don't like to wear them. I carry everything else I would need in my purse. If I'm going on a walk and I'm not taking my purse then I put my cell phone in one pocket and my pepper spray in the other. Usually my pepper spray's just clipped on a key chain to my purse, but if I don't want to carry my purse I still want to carry my pepper spray.

OK, maybe the title is not so good, right now my pockets are empty too. It should say "what things do you carry in your pockets normaly" or so. I also carry my cellphone all times, but actually it's rare to use it. I have it "just in case" of someone calls me or I want to text a friend. Thanks for your response.

lol, it's okay. That's what I was thinking that you meant. I carry my cell phone for 'just in case' too. I never want to assume a disaster could never happen and therefore I'll take it and end up not needing it. So it's for emergencies and not-so emergencies when someone needs to contact me or I really need to contact someone else.

Passport and Police registration document! Most of Europe consists of "police states" where ID is essential. Even on the beach, you still need it! Makes you want to swim away forever.

On my first days on my work, I used to have my ID document always with me. But really, never need it, and since it has been wearing over time, I left it at home now, unless I know I may need it. Here we don't have obligation to have or ID with us, save rare cases, so I preserve it by simply leaving it at home. Thanks for the response.

Being a female I always carry a purse and I have to tell you that outside of the kitchen sink I carry almost everything imaginable. Sometimes I trade purses due to a specific outfit or just in the mood to carry a smaller one. Those friend are the days I feel lost as I could not fit everything I normally carry and well then I do not have what I need.

Yeah, girls always carry much more things in their bag than men, I know some friends that having crazy things with them all the time, and I'm speaking of much crazier than cosmetic. Anyway, I also have troubles from time to time, that I can't fit everything in my pockets, I try to use a jean with enough space, but always comes a time when I need more, as I like to fit everything in pockets.

Keys for the house and mail box. That's it. I am a stay at home dad. Sometimes I keep a folded up piece of paper and a pen too.

Pen and paper, these are things that I never have with me, but from time to time I need, and I had to ask someone. I should start carring one too. Thanks for the response.

I don't have much in my pockets. I have a cell phone, which should have it's own class, Blackberry Torch, I have some money, a pack of cigs, and a lighter. I think its a bad thing to carry a lot of at the time useless or on the spot not nessasary, but it can be a bad thing, you never know what you should have in your pockets, life is very random, you don't know what anyone might ask to use.

Yes, I also prefer to carry only the bare minimum necesary to survive, and nothing more. It's uncomfortable and not good.

Ahha, I hardly put things in my pockets. I would rather put them in my bag. You see, girls take their bags along with them when going out. Things that are always in my bag include my keys, my cellphone, a purse with little money and a credit card, a bag of paper tissues, and the umbrella. :)

Maybe my question was about pockets, but I think it also aplies to bags too. For me, never carry tissues, never liked them. Neither umbrella, it's just too big for me, and when it rains, I preffer to be at home.

I never am surprised at what i may pull out of my own pockets. Most of the time it will be loose change or my house keys. if i am shopping, i may slip my shopping list in my pockets. if i see something little laying around the house, it may end up in my pocket for safekeeping too.

cell phone and my wallet will always be the things in my pocket. i don't like my pocket full with too much things..that makes me uncomfortable. if i need to bring more than my cell phone and wallet, i will bring another bag with me.

If I'm only going to a closer places like shopping mall, or mini store, and maybe restaurant, I usually carry my ipod, phone, Identity card, and a cash in my pocket. The best thing is whether wearing my jeans or my skirt, they all have a big pocket with a zip so it is very convenient to me. Oh and I also carry a chewing gum.

I only carry my wallet and cell phone when I go out, like going to the mall, picnic and distant places. If I go to a place quite close to my house, like buying food for lunch or dinner so I only carry my wallet.

Personally speaking, I usually put my cellphone, wallet, driving license and transportation card in my pockets. The above things are indispensable things when I go out of home. In the wallet I usually put banknotes, coins, credit cards and a usb flash disk. With all these things, I could go everywhere in the city without worrying any troubles.

There are something which I always carrying in my pocket while I going anywhere outside of the city. I always like to have mobile phone, IPod always in my pocket because IPod always help me to listening music while I feel bored. And I also carry a pen and a diary because sometimes we need to write anything. So these things helped me when I needed.

No matter where I may be going, I always have my cellphone and iPod touch in my pocket. But when I go out, I have coins in my pocket. I bring my bag that's why my money and other stuff aren't in my pocket.
