My wallet is the size of a small brick, and not by my own purchase. It's also white. Well, its kinda grey now, and a bit of fushia pink from an unlidded lippy. Who buys white things!? Anywho, what's in your wallets? Not your handbag, but your wallets! Or purses, whatever you call them.

In mine I have eftpos cards, a visa, cards from places like The Body Shop and the pharmacy, a buttload of coins (I freakin LOVE coins), business cards, 2 library cards, $30 cash, a blistex lipbalm, a pen, novelty coins from the Auckland Zoo, Kelly Tarltons and Rainbow Springs, a nail file, and a little baggy that contains spare peircings incase the current ones break. Oh, and a little spray bottle of hand santizier. 

I don't own a handbag, obviously. hahahahaha.

You are all good! I have a phone cover that has room for my eftpos cards and licence, so they go in there, so my wallet is full of all those other random cards (AA, Library card, loyalty cards), coins, business  cards, random pieces of paper with apparently important info on them and old receipts! Would love a new wallet but this one was a birthday present from the husband, don't want to give it up yet.

My word Shaza, you must have a massive wallet!! I'm trying to picture it haha.

I just bought a new wallet on an overseas trip, and it's smaller than my previous wallet - so I try to keep things downsized. Mine contains:
Eftpos
Credit card
Flybuys
Onecard
Drivers license
A couple of giftcards (Farmers, NW, Z)
First Aid cert
Insurance card
Netguard card for the bank
Blood donation card
Library card
HOP card
$130 cash 
A few free movie passes and coffee vouchers
Gold coins (silver goes in piggy, which I empty into a charity bucket every so often)
And a condom hahaha

It's 20cmx10cmx5cm, that's not that big is it? I don't think so but it's pretty fat and could probably kill a man if it was weighted right lmao. I can also put my phone in it, but then I really don't have any room haha. It's from Forever New, a store I've never heard of.
Also, I lol'd at the condom.

Haha I totally just got my ruler out of my desk to figure out how big your wallet is. It's much bigger than mine, but you're right - it's not THAT big :)

Mine is a vintage Oroton glomesh one that is usually stuffed with receipts and coffee cards, but never any money. Plus the usual cards/ID/etc. I also keep Panadol, Razene and the pill in my wallet.

Interesting thread Shaza.  Can learn alot about someone by the contents of their wallet/purse.  My wallet is a hand me down black leather sort os wallet from my late nana it has a clip part on one side which holds my $15 in coins and $70 cash.  It has endless amounts of dockets from the warehouse and pak n save and some countdown animal cards.  In the card pockets part I have two bank cards and two visas.  A one card, fly buys card, city chic loyalty card and Farmers Loyalty card.  In the middle zip pocket is some spongebob stickers, a tampon, four tattoo studio business cards and a spare lip ring cause my piercing has been known to come out when eating..

Those animal cards are crazy! My mum completed her set within like, two weeks, and has almost 2 more full sets because people keep giving the cards to her. 

You can learn a lot about a person by whats in their wallets, I agree. I was just wondering because it had been on my mind for a while, and I was curious to see if anyone carried as much crap in their wallet as I do! :p

Lol you do carry alot but then like you said you don't have a bag,  So it's totally justified.  I hate those animal cards my kid wants to be part of the craze but its got ridiculous at his school where kids are being hurt because someone wants the cards they have so I keep them and pass them on to someone else.

shanawesthouser69, that is horrible!! Kids are so mean sometimes, and it's always over something silly like that. The craze over these cards, and the little NW toys (which my mother has the full set of, too, both sets!) gets so out of hand. If I knew what my mother was doing with her spare cards I would ask to send them to you so your kid could have a set without the fighting!

Oooh and Macs, when I go to the perfume sales I always have a wallet full of those little smelly cards!! They're so good in the moment but then a few days later when you try to work out what is what it's hard... But at least my wallet smells good haha :P

I also have a note from my fiance, from our first year together. He lost his phone and wrote me a note to tell me he lost it. For some reason I kept it haha. Thanks for sharing ladies! My curious little mind is satisfied now :P

coffee cards!  so many coffee cards.

Also store cards (incl Flybuys, One card etc), debit, credit and eftpos cards, my teacher registration card, usually some cash, often an instant kiwi and reciepts for reimbursement from work.


My most eccentric items are my souvenirs from trips to Japan, in particular my omamori, which is a Japanese temple charm.  They are bought for a recipient to wish them luck, or health, or whatever the purchaser wishes for the recipient.  My current one is for 'en-musubi' or luck in love.  So far it hasn't worked, but fingers crossed :)

Call me a voyuer but I love hearing about what is in people's wallets and handbags :P

My wallet is black with lime green zombies in various states of zombie madness. Their eyes also glow in the dark. It's tacky but I love it haha.

I have some cash, a Flybuys card, Eftpos and Debit card, a Farmers card, my license, my One card, a $5 off pizza card, coffee cards, 2 loyalty cards for 2 different Mexican restaurants (I LOVE Mexican), a cinema loyalty card, an EB Games loyalty card, a loyalty card for bubble tea, a camera card for work (it is like a memory card that holds files), and various media passes for work.

I have a long purple Briarwood wallet that I love (although I'm in the market for something smaller).

I have so many cards it isn't funny!!! Why does every firm give you a card rather than just collecting your info in a system. Argh.

I also have no cash, and two 10c coins.

EFTPOS card, Community Services card, a Telecom phone booth card thingy in case of emergencies, a few coins, Whicoulls, Farmers and Life Pharmacy loyalty cards and an EB Games club card. I also have a couple of receipts in there for proof of purchase if I win a couple of competitions that I need to have them for. My wallet comes with an Iphone holder as well but I have a cheap Smartphone so it doesn't fit haha. I keep my Debit card at home because I only use it for online purchases and if I lose my wallet I won't have to panic because I'll have my Debit card anyway!

I have a very small clutch type bag that I keep inside my bag which contains a tin of mints, a few lip products, coins and a gold metal card holder that usually only has my debit/eftpos card, Farmers club card and vouchers. I find these posts really interesting! xx

Magpiefi, I have the same trouble with my wallet, trying to keep it shut. The zips have unzipped before under the strain haha... Fortunately I cleaned it out, which is what made me curious about your wallets! Mrs Rain, your wallet isnt boring! Nobodies wallet is! :P BadIndieGamer - Depending on where I'm going, I usually leave my wallet at home cos I really hate how bulky it is, but I'm too cheap to go buy a new one or a bag lmao. And unfortunately for the VISA card, I have all it's pretty little numbers memorized. So I wouldn't need it at home anyway. Cos I figured if a monkey can learn to memorize that many numbers, then so can I! (And I have, with several cards hahaha)  I love all of your wallets. Thank you for sharing <3

Ooh, love reading what's inside your wallets! Fun fact: I usually don't carry one around! But when I do, it's a small one to keep my cards and IDs.

I love reading these sorts of things too. My wallet is currently a small cream coloured card sized pouch and just fits my debit card, club cards (one card, farmers, flybuys etc), drivers licence and some emergency cash. I find if I use a bigger wallet it just gets filled with recipts/junk etc!

Eek, dont even want to look inside my wallet. The outside is bad enough, i have been meaning to buy a new one, but other things have been taking priority!! My wallet it full of recepits.. dont know why i have been keeping so many! I have my eftpos card, credit card, student id, and liscense,  plus like 10 loyalty cards, even though i only regulary use 2! Seems like i might have to give my wallet a wee bit of a clean out

I love looking at everyone's wallet- I particularly enjoy looking at people's licences! So to be fair, I'd let them look at mine. It used to be hilarious, I got it when I was 17, so I was in my school uniform, I had no eyebrows and those terrible two strands of hair instead of a fringe many of us had in the mid 2000s. I was almost sad when I got it replaced last month - but the AA cut the photo out for me and now I have that in my wallet too!

At the moment I don't really like carrying a bag/wallet with me, but when I do, it's my black and grey one that I got from a Guess outlet store in California a few years ago.

Inside it has my license, loyalty cards (spotlight, onecard, farmers etc), eftpos card, receipts, and coins. I have another little card wallet which has all my other loyalty cards that I don't use often, plus our community services cards, health insurance cards etc.

Usually I have my keys also in my wallet. Since changing them over to a bag because of our holiday, I haven't put them back in my wallet. Guess who just got locked out of the house?

At this moment I have the following:

Credit card
Fly Buys
New World Fly buys
Medical Insurance card
Drivers Licence
Petrol Card
Contents/car Insurance card
Cash
Various coffee cards
