Cellphone, keys, wallet, brush, BC pills, and Tylenol are always routinely found in my purse.

I don't carry a purse anymore. Got tired of trying to find things in it. My bank card, a couple of dollars are pretty much all you are going to find in my pockets. Simplify. That's my motto!

Diapers, onsies, blankies, pacifiers, wipes, vaseline, thermometer, bandaids, tylenol, nursing pads, trucks, seasame street books... yes that is my diaper bag
but I don't get to carry a purse too!

Hubby and I always go shoping together so he's got the bank cards in his wallet. I think mine has one debit card, mine & Lucas' health cards, and some reminders for doctors appointments

I always carry my wallet, cell phone, and keys in my pockets. In my wallet, I carry my driver's license, a couple of credit cards, bank/debit card, student ID, auto and health insurance cards, cards for several different pet stores, Kihl's charge card, ASPCA card with emergency phone numbers, and occasionally a little bit of money.

There's no place like home
Wallet, cell phone, hair brush, keys, aspirin, sinus medication, nail file, nail clippers (they double as scissors in a pinch), lip moisturizer, bandaids, eye glass wipes, 2 pens, and kleenex. How's that for a precise list?

I can break this down by pocket

Right front---money, lip balm
Left front---keys, tiny reading glasses, Vicks inhaler
Back right---checkbook, comb

I'm a simple kind of gal.

Most of my clothes don't have pockets, and the ones that do, the pockets aren't big enough for my keys


My purse contains (at all times):
  • medications (I put a few of each pill I take in there, in case I need them)
  • wallet (contains all my id and bankcards n' such)
  • 2 pens and a notepad
  • feminine supplies
  • small first aid kit
  • small sewing kit (had a wardrobe malfunction at school once, without a sewing kit...learned from that)
  • lighter (even though I don't smoke anymore, you don't know when you may need a lighter)
  • USB stick
  • keys and sometimes cellphone
My DH, carries a wallet in his back pocket.... keys and a multitool in his front pockets

I'm scared to look.


Money, id, pens, checkbook, cellphone, keys, tissue, otc pain med, address book, comb, stamps, lucky $2 bill, notepad, tweezers, nail clippers, mirror, brass calipers, breath spray - and I think that is all.

Fighting for ferals in NW NJ!
I carry a backpack not a purse or anything. But it's easy to find stuff because it's got pockets. Here we go:

Full side back pocket: work papers & notepad.

Left side small pocket:
- Pepper spray
- whistle
- small flashlight

Right side small pocket: Hand wipes

Inside zip pocket:
- Checkbook
- important receipts
- membership cards
- spare key to car

Left inside non-zip pocket:
- both pairs of glasses
- lipstick
- bluetooth headset

Pens in pen holder thingies.

Right inside non-zip pocket:
- Glasses case with sun-shade clips
- a knife (the kind that folds back on itself into the handle)

In the main compartment:
- My wallet

- a zip bag that holds meds,
- first aid supplies,
- toothache stuff,
- a sewing kit,
- collar stays,
- extra buttons,
- safety pins,
- feminine supplies

Other stuff in the main compartment:
- kleenex
- a larger flashlight
- a key chain with keys we don't need often but need to know where they are...
- anything else I need for the day - book(s), laptop - whatever

Front snap-close pocket:
- Fold-up brush
- calculator
- stuff you need to give someone mouth-to-mouth without touching their lips & the thing you use to open someone's throat to breathe if it has been blocked or crushed.

Cell phone goes in my left pocket and keys go in my right pocket - unless I'm in a suit - then cell goes in the inside non-zip pocket and keys get dropped into the main compartment.

...and I think that about covers it!


Edited to add: Nope. Forgot the PDA. That's thin enough it slips into the back of that inside non-zip pocket. I don't like having my phone and PDA in one device.

The seat of a John Deere tractor
Don't carry a purse and most days nothing but a pocket knife and hay bits are to be found in my pockets, and the tractor key. If I go somewhere (somewhere being grocery shopping, just carry keys and debit card and cell phone, everything else stays in the SUV. At home said phone hangs around my neck - found a neat case with a neck cord.
