How Many Credit Cards do you bring with you at all time?

[Gmood1]

I had 20 or so in my wallet while on vacation down at Disney world over the last week. Lol
I mainly used Marvel for everything associated with Disney and dining, Penfed for gas, Discover for shopping deals at the outlet stores, USAA Limitless on general spend. Along with IHG and Hyatt for the rooms. And last but not least the FNBO 2% cash back on general spend, since the Limitless is over 50% utilization at the moment.

I never know what I'm going to use. So I normally have majority of my cards on me most of the time. Sounds crazy but I know I saved $350 to $400 by utilizing my cards on this trip.. Definitely worth my time.

I am trying to cut down the amount of cards i carry right now its CSR, EDP, Freedom and my debit card from Alliant CU. The three CC cover almost all my spending so it works for me

I carry 3 cards with me: A credit union debit card,
First National Bank of Omaha (2% Cashback Visa),
and the Bank of the West (Cash Back MasterCard).

I use 2 other credit cards for "Recurring Charges".
The US-Bank Cash+ and the Citi Double Cash.

I now only have 4 credit cards.

I carry 12, Amex platinum, Discover it, Cabelas, CSP, Citi DP, BofA Cash rewards Visa, BofA BBR

Just to name a few

I have a nice big wallet to match my nice big purse, but I've slimmed down the cards i carry. I have 4 with me at all times (not counting my store card to Old Navy, Target Debit and my Amazon Prime Visa):

Amex BCE

Discover It

Penfed Promise Visa

Amex Hilton Honors

I carry five, the rest are in my "sock drawer".

I would LIKE to only carry 1 card but since maximizing rewards is important to me, I have to carry all cards I need to make that happen.

I only have 5 cards total. My 2 Quicksilvers and my new Commence card stay in my SD since I only use those to auto-pay a few bills. So I only carry 2 cards in my wallet today. CSR for dining/travel and Blispay for general spend. I used to also carry my SallieMae for Grocery spend but when it was reduced to the Commence, I SD'd it.

I currently have three cards. A mastercard, visa and american express. How many cards do you carry in your wallet? I feel like three isn't enough? Even though they have plenty of availability (25k). How many do you consider is comfortable in your wallet?

BoA debit card, if I need cash.
