I was given a wallet today and I’ve already put some money in it. I don’t know what other things I should put in it, maybe my ID.
Get a library card, always underrated
2 bandaids
A note(maybe laminated) saying:
“LOST wallet. Call 555-4678 for reward. Thanks <your name>”
Keep 50 bucks at home, for when someone shows up.
What an original idea xDD
Bank cards, loyalty cards, other cards…
I have my driving licence, work ID, a first aid quick reference, postage stamps and one of those Swiss army knife credit card sized things as well as cash and bank cards.
FYI: do not sit on a wallet. That can cause/irritate Sciatica.
Keep in front pocket, or other carry all item, eg: backpack, courier bag… etc.
Does it block rfid? If not not anything with rfid unless they are in rfid blocking sleeves.
Depends, on what you’re trying to protect. EMV transactions are far more secure and don’t actually transmit any bank info, they’re just one time transaction hashes generated cryptographically that are only valid for a short time.
You’re more likely to come across a skimmer at a gas station that’s reads you card details of the mag stripe, or having your card leaked in a data breach.
The only time I’ve seen RFID really being attacked is red teams tricking employees to clone security badges outside office buildings. So I guess put your security badge in an RFID sleeve around your neck lol
Driver’s license. Credit/debit card. Library card. RFID blocker (if not built into wallet).
Health insurance card. Important medical information (like I dunno, “Diabetic” or “allergic to penicillin”). Contact information for next of kin [can be the same card as health information].
An emergency twenty dollar bill.
Plenty of people are answering your question, so let me give you a warning. If you put a gift card to an obscure store or punch card for a barbershop in there, you will absolutely forget you have it.
I keep a laminated 4 leaf clover in mine.
Me too!
An uno reverse card
It’s come in handy more times than I’d like to admit
- At least one payment card
- travel cards
- driving license/ID
- organ donation card (I stick mine on the back of my ID)
- at least one coin for supermarket trolleys
- some notes, just in case.
- work building access card
A condom.
Apart from the obvious use, you can carry water in it if there’s an emergency.
Please don’t carry condoms around in your wallet. They can easily break in situations when you definitely don’t want them to break.
It would be pointless in my case, because who wants to be with a weirdo who collects coins?
a) Don’t sell yourself short bro, many of the best people are weirdos
b) You are going to feel SO stupid if you meet a horny coin fanatic tomorrow and have to turn them down
People who might need someone with a vessel to carry water in it if there’s an emergency.
Only things you wanna lose
Sure you need some cash but dont put your life savings in there, just enough for todays shopping/sandwich
Traditionally, a condom. But only for a decade or so. Just long enough for it to mark an eternal shape of dismal circumstance.
AR-15
