hitomi Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 i always have a problem with this, my wallet starts out thin when new and then fattens upit's now so fat i'm uncomfortable putting it in my pocketand it creates an unsightly bulge when i do. what are your strategies to keep your wallets thin?how do you carry your wallets?leaving my cards (ids, credit cards, etc) is out of the question though Quote Link to comment
yotski Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Im just putting 1 ATM, 1 CC, 1 ID, insurance card, no coins, just a couple of money. Check your wallet at the end of the day, because andun yung mga resibo na pwede mo nang itabi sa ibang lugar. Discard all the little basura in you wallet. Btw, I'm getting a bigger wallet ;P andun na rin kase yung planner ko, sobrang hectic and sched ko! grrrr Quote Link to comment
sk3rmo Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) if you're a guy, try using a money clip. that way, you only keep bigger denominated bills in your wallet.hundreds fifties and twenties are clipped together and goes to your front pocket. One advantage is thatyou don't keep on taking out your wallet to pay for small bills. Edited January 22, 2010 by sk3rmo Quote Link to comment
Mild Seven Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 try using a messenger bag so that you don't carry around your wallet....or try using a murse (man purse). Quote Link to comment

wild_wild_card Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 remove the cards that you rarely use (SSS, TIN, etc) and put it in a separate wallet/card holder. For the TIN, SSS, you usually only need the numbers so you can just write this down in a piece of paper which you can keep in your wallet. Quote Link to comment

He's right.Just keep the essential Ids. leave out the other govt issued except your D.L.I usually keep the 50 and 20 bills in my pants then forget about them completely. Quote Link to comment

hitomi Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 (edited) matagal na ako naghahanap ng money clip. saan makakabili. PM me please. TY 2nd the motion, san nga ba? as for a murse, then you'd be carrying something bigger than a wallet all the timeit'll be a bigger bother right? or am i just not a metrosexual? hehe Edited January 25, 2010 by hitomi Quote Link to comment
Sgt Oinky Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 i used to have this same problem...and its because of this problem, i've lost 3....either slipped outta my pant pocket of gotten pick-pocketted. So I started using money clips. For everything else, I have this bag they call a "FatBoy". It actually very useful....compartments for everything. looks like this FatBoy The money clip did the trick fer me as I've never lost money since then. Quote Link to comment
ROLEX69 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 matagal na ako naghahanap ng money clip. saan makakabili. PM me please. TYSir sa mga Malls meron, Mens Wallet section. Mc JIM meron po, less than 300 lng po, :goatee: Quote Link to comment
Itto Ogami Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 an alternative to the money clip would be the business card case. somebody gave me one last Christmas.it was made of metal, 2"x3"x1/4" - at first, i didn't know what to do with it.now, aside from a couple of business cards inside, i'm able to put in some bills (although not as much as a money clip can hold) as well as my MRT/LRT cards. something like this...

goodshepperd Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hmmmnnnn... I started to experience this kind of syndrome since I left P.I.... My wallet have always been thin when I was there but began getting thicker and thicker when I started working here abroad.... Hahahaha.... Quote Link to comment
Agent_mulder Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Aside from the usual driver's license, SSS ID, bills, credit cards and even picture of the missus and/or gf, we also tend to put piece of papers (and even sim cards) inside our wallet. In my case, I removed the government issued ID's (i.e. driver's license, SSS, TIN) as these are thick and just remembered their respective numbers (well except for the driver's license no.). I also don' put coins in my wallet as it not only thicken but also make it a lot heavier, I put the smaller bills (20's and 50's) and coins in a purse which also double as my case for my cellphone....

test1985 Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Here are some of my rules on wallets:1. Never put coins in your wallet. buy a separate coin purse if you have to.2. Don't put membership cards inside the wallet. e.g. national bookstore, etc.3. Put only cash, credit cards, ATMs, credit card receipts in your wallet.4. Don't put calling cards in your wallet. (they look cheap) Buy a separate card holder if you have to.5. Get a classy leather bag and put your wallet inside. (optional) Quote Link to comment
maniaclara Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 my wallet gets fat only when i have a lot of money (which is always good, right?) or when i have a lot of receipts and papers.i guess the answer there would be to spend the money or to take out the trash. Quote Link to comment
sfstudmuffin Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I think receipts are the major reason wallets go fat...so I empty my wallet of receipts everyday....just carry 1 or 2 CC, atm, and enough cash for the day. Quote Link to comment
StawAwayManiacs Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I don't really use a wallet. More of a small purse. I can fit my money, coins, important cards, some receipts, my internet banking device, and a bottle opener. Seriously. haha Quote Link to comment
heartless86 Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 i switched from a traditional wallet and now just use a card holder. i only carry 1 atm card, 1 credit card, 1 id, and i clip my cash in a money clip. Quote Link to comment
ambidextrous00 Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 im soo guilty of this hahaha. im so old school, i keep pictures in my wallet. cards and IDs. and my guitar pick collection....can you imagine i have a huge wallet anyway so i guess its cool. i keep a purse, i keep my "allowance" there. i only keep big bills on my wallet. minimizes the need to arrange things in my wallet. receipts dont pile up inside cause i dont put anything else in there hahahaha Quote Link to comment
Itto Ogami Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 something like this... there's this quaint gift shop @ Avenida near Recto,EASTWEST COMMERCIAL, i think.they have an extensive array of business card holders on display. Quote Link to comment
ndn Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Di ako nagdadala ng wallet eh. 100 pesos lang yun na. Quote Link to comment
