Many times wallet/purse all like helmets of our life. The ID card of ours, address and phone number will save in case of emergency. All debit,credit cards. My friend has peculiar things like his favorite cine stars photos. So what else you have in your wallet and think necessary to have them. What other funny stuffs you fill your purse. I heard there are many inner zipped purses meant for safe money with which even pick poketers get confused at times.

Thats cool to hear. Most of us prefer leather type. My brother has a wallet for 8 years now in very bad condition, but just for one reason, he find it lucky

Hi Sameer, Nice to hear you value your wallet. So you are confident that your wallet is not pickpocketed. You added a nice stuffs like visiting cards and passport photos. One of my friend has 11 zips on his purse. He somtimes forget where he kept is note.. So how often you change your wallet, few months or few years later?

I have my wallet, couple packs of tissues, chapstick, menthol for my nose, car key and now a couple of toys for my baby when we go out.

It helps making your nose to breath again(I don't know what's the verb for it...sorry) I need it when my nose gets allergic due to a new environment, cats, dust, dirty place etc or when my nose is stuffy.
Yeah, I put toys in them so when I go shopping, if he gets upset, I give it to him so it keeps him occupied for a bit

Thats so cute to hear you keep toys of babe. What is that menthol, is it like inhaler to stop you from sneezing? When i travel, am allergic to pollution, so i always keep a handkerchief to hide my nose.

No mermaidivy, dont be sorry, you said right way. I never heard of it, so now got the purpose of menthol. Toys is the best idea of getting the kids under control. So you plan it well, I never carry toys and I find her very difficult to tolerate. So let me try your plan next times both menthol and toys

Thats cool, you just have the important things alone. Some think, the purses are lucky, so they have same type for years. How about you? You still have the same purse.

I have a very simple thin wallet with my drivers license, id and health care card but despite being thin there's always some money in Found a few wallets in my life and always returned them. And if one finds a wallet and wants to steal the money what can you do...but at least send it to the owner so he gets his cards back.

Thats so great to hear that you have returned the purses. Its like you have given them their life back. Because purse is one which carries the wealth, health and Identity of a human. You will be blessed!.
Do you consider your purse so lucky. I have my aunt, she keeps a same purse for years and years, she says that lucky as she earned more.

I don't have a special relationship with my wallet but i do like the fact that it's thin, light and has everything i need even coin compartment. It's like 5 millimeters thick or maybe even less. I wouldn't cope with a fat one that you can't even put in your pocket.

You are not attached with sentiments, nice to hear that. Yes, I see some people stuff the pocket with big wallets and make themselves uncomfortable. My dad has a quite sneaky wallet which looks smart and well fit on his pocket. Coin compartment is always helpful for easy handling. You have a best one for you

Really nothing out of the ordinary in my wallet. Just cash and identification. And perhaps a little lint as well but that's not exactly all that strange, to say the very least. Then again, there are some people who keep some rather intriguing stuff in their purses or wallets or whatever. Not me, I like to keep things rather simple to say the very least.
My grandmother on the other hand, she has some interesting things in her purse. One day, she told me about finding a school program from something that I did when I was maybe six or seven. It is rather intriguing the things that can remain forgotten in your purse for years and years and years. That is just one example that really did catch me and made me intrigued.

Hi martha, So I see you are quite alert and cautious of the pick pocketers. True once my friend lost purse, which had the debit card, voter id and she suffered lot in getting back the duplicate one. So you shared a very useful information of handling wallet safely.

I carry my Voters ID, PAN card, ATM and Debit cards, Visiting cards, around 5 to 10 passport/stamp size snaps of mine, loyalty cards, few important visiting cards, Medical Insurance card, company ID card,membership cards and not to mention currency notes and coins....

Hi narthan, Voters ID is a important one which can be used as ID proof, Address proof. So you have all important stuffs in your wallet. What kind of wallet you prefer, like leather or synthetic cotton wallets. I see more new designed wallets with more number of zips to safe the currency notes and coins?

The contents of my wallet consist of spare dollar bills, credit cards, drivers' license, library card... the usual stuff. Nothing strange. I may also keep sunglasses, pens or pencils, and extra lip gloss and concealer in my purse. Oh, and I can't forget my keys! Sometimes old receipts get crumbled up in the bottom if I forget to throw them away. That's about it, really!

Here you pointed my way of handling purse. Even I keep the old receipts and bills for some weeks and totally forget to clean or throw them away. One fine day when i sit to clean, i can see bills of years. Keys, if i fail to keep on purse, then it mean i missed out elsewhere. Do you keep mobile in purse too? or you use a seperate pouch like. My friend keeps all her make up set along with a petty first aid kit on her purse..

Oh my this is like what don't i have in my purse lol :). I swear I carry all kind of things inside my purse besides what it is suppose to be used for. It is embarrassing sometimes at the check out when I pull out a barbie doll, and the dolls hair brush, along with a pack of wipeys before I can find my wallet to get out my bank card. I'm sure the cashier is thinking, what the heck else is in that thing lol. I swore my purse would be organized unlike my mothers because my dad says she carrys everything but the kitchen sink in it, and I know that I am getting very close to that analogy. :)

Thats so interesting that you have all stuffs inside your purse. Dolls hair brushcute, so you love dolls especially barbies? cashier would be wondering, but I would say you have most peculiar things on your purse and that shows your interest and cautious to carry as many things you think you like. Even my mom is like that, she would stuff all sometimes cooking ingrediants.Once I found a spoon and salt mini pack. When i asked her, she said over work at kitchen , in tension, she put these two in purse like other things
I really enjoyed reading your purse. So you love dolls then?

I want my wallet to be small which i can just put at the back of my pants pocket. So aside from money of course, I make sure that I have necessary identification cards. IDs and cash card are essential of course, but IDs must have my picture. Wallet picture is also something I consider important. If my wallet had a side pocket or zipper, I usually saves some coins. These are things I think that a wallet should have. Happy mylotting.

Hi SimpleBB, So you are planned to have a small wallet that would be handy...
How sentiment are you to the wallet, you consider it lucky or you change your wallet often?

My life is usually carried with me in my wallet. If it is important to me, you will probably find it there. Anything from id to coins to favorite photos is something i will find in the compartments of my wallet.

Well worded. Thats so nice to hear you that you value your wallet to life. True, we can see all essential stuffs required for leading the life in our wallets. How often you clean your wallet for any papers or arrange the coins and notes to make sure your wallet is thin and not overstuffed.

i have old atm receipts in my wallet and 2 identification cards and a little cash. I dont keep a lot in my wallet because I understand times are tough now and some people become thieves and robbers and it is possible that they may get mine. :)

True, its not easy today to keep all important stuffs in purse due to robbery. I too have old atm receipts without my knowledge to tear it. Due you have sentiments to your purse, like its lucky for you? My brother has more sentiments, he would feel that if he take the purse, the day is successful for him

I often feel like I have everything in my purse. I care a lot around with me. I have my wallet, tons of pens, highlighters,a pack of sticky notes, my planner, Avon books, sometimes I have my Bible in there, my sunglasses, chapstick, and hand sanitizer. I usually use most of the stuff I carry each day so I don't feel so bad.
