Default Do you use a wallet....!?

Personally I don't use one, but its got to the point where cards are getting bent and worn etc... so tempted to get a wallet to protect my bank card and hold the notes (must have lost a few notes in my time)

Not bothered if it doesnt hold coins as that what purses are for...

So, any recommendations.. Tempted by a cloth Animal one! Nice and cheap

I used to hate carrying a wallet but its annoying when cards get scratched/fucked. I just try to keep as little as possible in it now so its not too bulky

I never used to but ive had an Oakley one for a while now and its perfect! Light and bendable even with cards in etc, but has some kevlar style lattice on one side which is properly hardwaring, the other side is leather!

This is it......

i always said i wouldnt use one due to if it gets lost then youe loose EVERTHING and in the age of identity theft it's not a good idea to keep all your important cards in there.

so i just use it to carry my money and bank card.

All cards in one place isn't ideal, but all I have is a Natwest card.. Leave driving liscence etc at home.

LOL at you lot talking about wallets. Kinda always makes me laugh, us blokes get away with a wallet in one pocket, mobile phone in the other and maybe a set of keys.

Women? Handbag the size of a suitcase and they are always like a bombsite in there too and no matter how big it is, it's never got enough room.

Four stars and...

"Does the wallet stick together when closed ?
... or just fold ?"

just oredered this one from play

Ducti Original Coin Classic Silver Wallet from Play.com Only a tenner

only because...

And besides, what if you got hit by an eighteen wheeler tomorrow and you found yourself face down in a ditch clinging to life...your wallet may be the only thing anyone will know about you. And just maybe as the paramedics drag your sorry ass out of the ditch they discover you're carrying a DUCTI. They would immediately know you're the man and give you some special, sweet attention that you could probably really use...being that you were in a ditch and all.
