I gave up on wallets 20+ years ago. Believe it or not I use a medium size binder clip from Office Depot. Works great as a money clip and I can change colors if I want to! [laugh] Drove my ex-wife crazy. I think she bought me two different wallets one year as gifts but I never used them.

thats hilarious. i would love a wallet as a gift, but ultimately im trying to get away from mine. I hate carrying it aorund. Ill take a look at the links here later tonight.

Are money clips or ultra slim wallets better for carrying the bare essentials. I feel like if i had a money clip, my ID would fall out if i pull a bill out or something.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

+1!

Mine is from Office Max.  Chrome.

Notthing works better.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

I carry a cheap Samsonite business card folder that I got at office max for $10

i hate large wallets, and it forces me to economize on what I am carrying around with me.

I've been using Tumi wallets for about 10-12 years.

First leather, but that ends up streatching a little.

In the last 7-8 years I swtiched to the ballistic nylon, no complaints.  One of the few non-leather wallets that still looks like a big boys wallet.

get a money clip (or magnetic ones) if you travel light and don't carry alot of plastic.

i hate carrying a wallet too, but feel it's a necessity to have all the stuff it holds.  however, for times when i think i'll be safe economizing my wife got me a gucci card case wallet.  i couldn't find the exact one but it's similar to the one in the link below.  it's got a middle section where you can put some cash, then a slot on both outer sides for cards.  i carry my license, 2 ATM/credit cards, my health insurance card, and some cash.  it's super thin and can fit into any pocket without feeling bulky.  and i feel it's more secure than having all my stuff in a money clip.

Make sure you only get a magnetic one if you plan on carrying No plastic.
A magnetic money clip can make the strip on the back of your card useless.

... binder clips. And when I slim the stash down to the basic id, charge card and a few bills I can go with a smaller binder clip. We're talking cheap and efficient here... and colorful!! [laugh]

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.
