    Amex Platinum Charge Card
    Diner's Club Professional Charge Card
    BOA Visa Signature Worldpoints Credit Card
    Starbucks Gold Membership Card
    $345.00 cash
    Driver's License
    Military CAC
    5 business cards (my own)
    Proximity Badge (for my office)

  • #2
    Driver's license
    Nursing license
    Kroger shopping card
    Staples rewards card

    I don't carry cash. I also don't need to carry my nsg. license, I'm going to take it out.

      haha nice question, this is gonna be interesting. Although, the ladies here may have a pretty significant list for the entire contents of a purse.... lol

      For me:
      Mil ID and Driver's Licence
      Sam's Card, Contacts card for my work, Bank card (member/phone numbers), Tricare card
      PenFed Platinum Visa card, USAA World Platinum Mastercard, Debit card (Looking at it, I realize how ridiculously CC's are named anymore...)
      "Round Metal Object"
      $22 cash (not sure where the $20 came from... normally I don't have more than about $3 cash....)

          **Driver's License
          **Credit cards (2)
          **AAA card
          **Proof of auto insurance
          **Health insurance card
          **$20 bill (In case of emergency)

          That's about it. I carry my wallet more than I bother with a purse. & definitely only carry what I *need*

            1 credit card
            1 debit card
            driver's license
            2 receipts
            box top from hair dye (because I can never remember which it is, but try to buy it only when I come across a sale)
            $76

            I provision my wallet when I leave home according to what I expect I will need. Often I only take one means of payment. Right now I should have in it.a short list of garden seeds I am looking for, but have misplaced the list.
