small wallet

#1

Post by Venus Pax »

In college, I used a small wallet that was attached to a keychain. It was enough to hold a driver's license, a credit card, and maybe a few small bills, but no change.

I would like another one, but am not sure where to look. I got the first few that I used (and I used to wear these things out) at the college bookstore. Now, I'm a good distance from the college I attended, so that's not much of an option.

Anyone know where I can get one? I would like one to use at the gym and when I ride my bike.

How about a travel store or REI.

I see them occasionally at WalMart, usually in the men's department. (I have the chain from one of them attached to my keys.)

All guns have at least two safeties. One's digital, one's cognitive. In other words - keep the digit off the trigger until ready to fire, and THINK. Some guns also have mechanical safeties on top of those. But if the first two don't work, the mechanical ones aren't guaranteed. - me

you mentioned your college, do they have a website? maybe you can order it from their online store?
FWIW, IIRC, AFAIK, FTMP, IANAL. YMMV.

I looked at the pictures and expected it to cost $3 or $4 so I clicked the buy link and :shock:

WildBill suggested REI. Something like this? http://www.rei.com/product/699120

i've had good luck with business card holders from office supply stores. A simple bifold with a pocket on either side.
They will hold the three for four pieces of plastic in one side, a few bills on the other side. Leather, about $5 to $8.
Ø resist

Take away the second first, and the first is gone in a second.

I ordered one of these because it was recommended for carrying speed strips.

It is really made for something a bit larger than what y'all are talking about, but it could work.

Small Leather Waist Pouch
The biggest problem with fanny packs and belt pouches is size. They are just too large! This small, unobtrusive pouch is just the right size for a small digital camera, a cell phone, your credit cards and cash or a small PDA. Measures only 3-1/2" x 5-1/8". Has a zipper pocket on the front and the top opens to a double compartment to handle both a camera and your cash and cards. The belt loop on the back will fit up to a 1-1/2" belt.

So flat and trim that it goes well under a jacket. Fine, soft leather, cognac in color. Weighs only 1.5 oz.
ps. I don't have it yet, so can't answer any questions about it.

:iagree:

Get 'em at Office Depot. They are sold as business card holders or ID cases. I carry one every day instead of a big billfold full of stuff I'll never need, and it will fit in a shirt pocket. Plenty of room for my DL and CHL behind the window on one side and two or three credit/ATM cards on the other with room left over for a little cash.

I bought something at wal-mart, but it wasn't exactly what I wanted. I'll check office depot this week for business card holders. That may be closer to what I'm looking for.

Mithras, that's just a tad more than I wanted to spend.
