Re: Need a new wallet for all these cards!

Two more days til my wallet arrives from Amazon.  Do I sound excited?   My present wallet is about 20 yrs old.

You should like it.  I dig mine I should probably order a couple back ups for later.  They're only $15

Re: Need a new wallet for all these cards!

I bought a Dockers wallet last year that has 9 card slots and an ID window. It is really well made and seems like it will last a long time.

I don't like having a bunch of cards in my wallet and want to go as light as possible. Here's what I carry- drivers license, Amex, Freedom, corporate MasterCard, debit (just in case I need to go into the bank or stop at an ATM), Costco card, insurance card. I'm always trying to rid myself of cards to carry; I got super excited when I found out I could download the Sam's Club app on my phone and it gave me a digital version of my membership. lol

This thing is perfect and has held up pretty well, and at a glance doens't look cheap at all, but when you study it you can see it's weak points and I don't expect it to last another year. I keep my eyes open for something with the same slot set up with better quality.


I dig that one for going for something small.  But I want to be able to carry all of my 6 credit cards + debit card + driver's license, + sams card + work ID + medical insurance id.  I want to carry them all around b/c I just got them & want to use them all as much as possible to show usage across all 6 credit cards.  Right now I have a "standard" wallet that looks nice, good leather, but it only has 8 card slots, but I can only use 6 slots b/c the bottom ones overlap too much & cover up the card above it.


 

Actually I just checked my wallet, I'm carrying more than I thought. I have 3 personal cards, corporate card, debit card, ID, Costco and insurance... so 8 cards in total. I used to carry the Sam's card and a rewards card as well but that was really pushing it. I keep 4 in the outside slots and 4 more in the inside slots. I don't have the "fight" the wallet at all to get to my cards. It's surprisingly roomy.

 

Here it is with 8 cards in it. 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

Which wallet is this?

seems like a wallet that small would easily slip out of your pocket & you might not even notice

I received my wallet today and I must admit,  I'm impressed.  Good quality for the money.  Every card fit nice and tight,  which I like.  The weird thing is,  I had the exact number of cards,  ID's,  ect  to fill the wallet exactly.  I always said that 13 was my lucky number.
