Men: Ideas on how to trim my fat wallet

[Walter]

This is what I use Official site of the Slimmy® Wallet | The Slimmest Front Pocket Wallet on Earth
Google also for front pocket wallets.

This is what I was talking about. Partida pa yan at di pa araw ng sweldo. :D



I am quite surprised that some of you actually leave your driver's license in the car. I always thought that DLs should be in your person as it identifies you as a registered/bonafied driver. This is as opposed to the OR/CR which identifies the car as a registered motor vehicle.

I saw Jaime Zobel de Ayala at a resaturant once. When he brought out his wallet to pay, it was about 1/3 your fat wallet. Im sure he could buy a Mercedes Benz with what he is carrying.

Overkill yan.

[Prime A]

Driver's license
Three credit cards
Two ATM cards
Two rewards/point cards
HMO card
Company ID
Four restaurant discount cards
SSS
Philhealth
A few backup calling cards
A wad of cash (just 'enough')
A picture of my family

It's so thick that I have to remove it from my back pocket if I need to sit down for any length of time, or I risk damaging my credit cards and give me a sore butt cheek.

Typically, I'm interested in how you guys cope with it.

You don't need to bring all of them especially the SSS ID!

For SSS, Philhealth, & some calling card; just copy the # in a piece of nice paper.

Credit card, reward card, atm card; bring if you think you will use it that day, & enough cash that suits you to your everyday need.

Lastly, its all about putting what is essential to everyday use. If you will going to use it for once a week at least, don't put it in your wallet.

grabe dami naman pala laman ng wallet niyo kaya ganyan ka-kapal.

here's what's inside my wallet
- 2 credit cards
- 2 atms
- access card
- health card (incase of emergency)
- drivers license
- firearm license
- ptcfor
- cash (1,000 and 500 only, 100 below goes in my left front pocket)

discount cards and other stuff i don't use everyday my wife keeps it.

[Retz]

What cash amount do you usually put inside your wallet? 100? 500? 1000? or 1000 above?

why do you need your SSS, BIR and other government IDs in your wallet if you do not use those everyday? pag nadukot ang wallet mo hirap palitan mga yan. i keep those cards in my files at home, locked in a small fire safe. you only need to list down the ID numbers in a piece of paper, or in a memo in your cel phone in case you need the numbers for filling up government papers (pagkuha ng cedula for example).

the gun license belongs with the gun, so keep it in the gun safe/case where you keep your gun. paano kung ginamit ng misis mo yung gun to defend your home and she could not present the license to the police when they come because it was with you, e di hassle pa at makakatikim pa siya ng 1 night in jail for illegal possesion. remember all members of your household are extended holders of the gun license if the gun was used for defending your home. the PTCFOR can also go with the license as you will not bring the gun without the license and PTCFOR anyway. unless you carry everyday.

calling cards? phone memo na lang yan. or take a picture with your cam phone in case you need to show it to some security guard or secretary. di na uso yang calling cards na yan, unless ang nagbigay sa iyo e "Chief PNP" with a note "kindly extend all assistance..." na nakalagay.

Same here. I have a small, fireproof box for pertinent IDs and documents which i don't want to keep in the bank.

how i wish ganyan kakapal ang wallet ko.....at pera ang laman.

Usually yung kilala kong ganyan hindi na nag-wallet. Money clip or naka bundle lang sa bulsa nila.

[Ry_Tower]

^ Yeah, I might lose the BIR and SS na rin nga. May isang wallet din kasi sa haws that is particularly for cards.

[pop3corn]

boy scout mentality yata yan fat wallet na yan eh. ang kapal sobra ng laman. yun ba laging handa sa lahat pwede mangyari.

ako nga pag nag-gym, skeleton lang wallet ko tipong di lalampas ng P500 ang laman tapos lahat ng credit cards iwan sa car, and even the Gym card ni hindi ko na dinadala, kasi minsan wave or tango lang sa entrance, pasok na kagad ako sa gym kasi sobrang kilala na ko dun

It's not like I woke up one day and decided to cram all of those things in my wallet. It got accumulated in a span of years. You know how it is naman; you unconsciously add one thing after another. Putting in one additional card for instance won't amount much as far as thickness and weight. But do that every year and by a certain age, it'll eventually bite you in the ass (pun intended :D)

It's only recently that I felt that it's getting harder to get my wallet out of my back pocket, even while standing up. It always snags somehow. This is especially annoying while I'm driving and wearing a seatbelt and have to take out some cash for toll gates or drive-thrus. Kaya as a temp solution, I remove my wallet before sitting down.

Same.

Tanggal wallet, tanggal cellphone ang ginagawa ko before I drive the car. Mahirap na kapag ma-dulas pa yung gadget mo at mahulog dun sa sulok... Hassle.

Pero wallet ko nga, manipis lang naman.

gumamit ka ng isang iphone wallet software that will encrypt all those important number of your cards. and then those cards na talagang kelangan dalhin araw-araw lagay mo sa wallet mo, tapos yun ipad bag mo lagyan mo dito ng less frequently used cards

Yan din problem ko..may manipis na wallet ba na matibay pa din...kapal kasi ng leather ng ibang wallet eh.

I used Fino before my current wallet and it was okay.

I normally change wallets every three years.
