How many cards in your wallet or purse?

Anonymous · ‎07-16-2015

Im not asking how many cards you have, just how many you actually keep on you?

My wallet is getting full due to my recent spree, and it made me wonder what I actually need to keep on me? I have five cards and my debit card in mine. I realized I would be in trouble if it was lost or stolen with the limits lol.

I just might keep three

How many are in yours ?

Wayyy too many at the moment, but I'm getting to the point where if I leave the house I pick out the cards I plan to use or might use and take only those. Max 3.

Personal Credit? Check. Business Credit? Check.
Mission Accomplished.
Thanks MyFico!

Right now? Citi Prestige, Discover It and my Barclay's Aviator Red, since my shiny new Everyday Preferred was "fraud-zen" by AMEX, and i'm not going to hassle myself with a notary at the bank to prove who I say I am after having had over 10 cards with them in the past. I already have the D* benefit from it and don't care if they close it.

10 including my bank debit card. I have a wallet with many available slots!

8 out of 9. I keep one at home just in case (knock on wood) I lose my wallet. I use 4 regularly, the other 4 I keep in there for occasional use to keep them alive. I'm thinking of paring that down, however.

3. Discover IT, Chase Freedom, and Amex BCP. The others I keep home and only use for recurring monthly charges to keep them active, or they have a balance I'm paying down before I start using them again.

I just looked and I have 6, however two are my HSA spending card and Corporate Visa, both of which I rarely use but still kind of have to carry them around. I think I'd like to narrow my personal cards to 3.

I only keep 4 credit cards + my Sam's MC, since it doubles as a membership card. Usually, I have my AmEx EDP, AmEx Platinum, CSP, and the 4th being whatever I am rotating in. I couldn't imagine the nightmare of calling to cancel/obtain replacements if I ever lost my wallet with too many cards in it. I don't ever carry my debit cards because I don't like having a direct link to my funds being exposed to skimmers and dishonest store clerks. Additionally, the idea of losing a debit card is too frightening for me.

Banks are a lot less apt to recover anyone else's money but their own.
