Re: What's in your wallet?

I've lost my wallet way more times than my car has gotten broken into....which is never. Actually neither one has happened in recent years, not even when I was in college. But a safe sounds like a good idea.

Yeah icy a safe will be much safer than your glove compartment.

Many of us have multiple cards, but how many of those do we actually carry with us everywhere?  What cards do you carry everywhere and what cards do you keep in the drawer and why?


I carry the Chase Freedom, BofA Cash Rewards, Citi Simplicity, Wells Fargo Cash Back Card, and the B&N MasterCard(for now, planning on closing this card in the next coming days)


Just out of curiosity, why are you closing the B&N card? I work for them and I hardly ever see people using it. I thought about getting one myself someday (5% off in addition to the employee discount), but that's a few years away...

Re: What's in your wallet?

I actually carry all of my cards, but I probably shouldn't. I'm just paranoid that I will somehow be without the best card for the purchase or something I guess haha.

Re: What's in your wallet?

If you have like 5 cards then I don't see an issue carrying with them. But people with 30 cards? You might be pushing it. I'm a woman, so my wallet actually has like 20 slots in it and just double up some of my cards. When I'm at work..that wallet stays in the safe and I have a tiny wallet I take it work with me.

This happened to me! I haven't used my Forward in months outside of iTunes purchases, and my boyfriend suggests we go to the movies. Of course I didn't have my Forward on me cuz I hardly ever go, so I couldn't get the 5X points. Seeing him swipe his debit card made me cringe.
