Where do you put your wallet?

[Louchuck]

A little bit of a dumb question but I'd like to know where people put their wallets: front pocket, back pocket, no wallet?

I made a previous post about imbalance in my glutes/hips and I was thinking about how much time I spend sitting at work, and how much time I've spent sitting on my wallet. My hip on my wallet side is higher than the non-wallet side so I was thinking that maybe my wallet has something to do with it...

Any thoughts on this idea?

No wallets. Money in front right pocket. Bank card, visa, id, car keys in coat/jacket.

You should definitely stop sitting on your wallet. Not great for back, and it messes up your pants over time too.

Agreed.

I used to carry too much crap in my wallet and switched to a money clip credit card wallet that I keep in my front pocket

Hi Cleave,
I can't quite see the credit card number there, do you have a better picture?
Ta,

PS I keep my wallet in my front pocket and if I'm going out on the town I leave it at home and just take card and money in front pocket.

I always take my wallet out of my back pocket when I'll be sitting for a while, like car trips or when I'm at work.

I got the same thing. So much better than a big wallet.

Walk in the front door - it goes into a bowl with my keys & cell phone.

When I walk into the office - it goes into a drawer - with keys and cell.

Downside? The wife always knows where to find it, so I'm always out of cash.

Got nicked by the cleaners at the office one time. Lifted my visa card and split for Vegas. They got $8500 in cash advances before the bank cut them off. Thankfully it didn't cost me a penny - and the bank then increased my credit limit!

LOL, I have the same EXACT money clip. I only carry my drivers license, CCW card, debit card, health insurance card, and cash. So it's thin enough to wear in my left front pocket and not be bulky.

I also carry the exact same thing. Far superior to a wallet. Its in my right pocket.

Anybody ever see the episode of Seinfeld where George has a monster wallet? The thing is like 3 inches thick and he sits on it. Great episode.

I used to have something similar to that, but mine had a bulky money clip that didn't hold enough cash. I swapped it for a tri-fold that I put in my left front pocket when seated, and in my right back pocket when standing. I only sit when in my car, so it's not like I'm constantly switching.

I have a normal wallet but i keep it in my right front pocket. It looks a little bulky sometimes, so maybe i should switch to something else.

I have a big wallet back right pocket. But its just for various ID cards. I keep notes in the coin pocket of trousers kinda rolled up. I got this habit of hiding notes growing up in areas/schools where getting robbed was an everyday thing.

I know its risky having all my ID & cards having a wallet hanging out back though, but its the most convenient place as I can just swipe 'my ass' on the RFID entry panel when getting to school.

I have a longer wallet that doesn't fold the bills, and it lives in my jacket pocket when it's cool enough for jackets. During the summer, it goes in the back pocket until I have to sit somewhere. It's think enough that it's easy to find a place for.

I just carry a simple money clip in front pocket with cash, two IDs and one card. Takes up less space them my cell phone.

You realize this thread is from February?

Now that it's up here anyway.. I have the biggest wallet in the world and it's annoying the crap out of me.. I used to have it in my backpocket all day, sitting on it at work for 8 hours at a time. After I hurt my back I noticed how painful it was and that it was probably not very helpful before either. Now I just keep it in my jacket, but am thinking of getting one of these:
