I'm sure we've had this discussion on the old Pea boards, but I don't remember it.
The thread about whether or not you carry an ID surprised me when someone stated that they never carry a purse.
So I'm curious. If you don't carry a purse, tote, backpack, fanny pack, or whatever, where do you put things like money, driver's license, credit/debit cards, phone, etc.?
How can you possible live without something to carry your lip balm, feminine hygiene product that the wrapper has fallen off of, old mint from Johhny Carino's, receipt for that thing you wanted to return 2 months ago, but forgot, etc., etc., etc?

My BFF doesn't carry a purse. It drives me nuts but she doesn't. Her DL is in her pocket, she has a couple of credit cards and had a hysterectomy a few years ago so doesn't need feminine hygiene products. It's crazy isn't it? I carry all my receipts in my purse from my last fill up of gas from 2001.
If I go to the gym at night I just take my DL and Visa card and cell phone. That is rare though.

I very rarely carry a purse. Which is odd, because I have several really nice ones. But I have a phone case that holds my DL, credit card and insurance card so usually that's all I have. I put it in my front pocket or in the side pocket if I'm wearing crops. And if I'm going somewhere with DH where we won't be separated and need to find each other I'll even leave that at home.

I am another that can not imagine not carrying a purse. I do keep to much junk in mine but I never leave home with out mine. My daughter jokes that I have a pharmacy in there but hey I am always prepared lol.

Occasionally I don't want to have to carry a handbag so I put a £10 note, a cc/debit card loose in my pocket or in one of those cc little holders. So as its occasionally I will have the other essentials I my car which I keep there all the time anyway.

My MIL doesn't carry one and it drives me crazy. She has a checkbook cover that has card slots and she puts that in her back pocket. Like a mans wallet!!!

When I don't carry a purse (which I usually do carry a purse), I have a super thin wallet that I put my DL and cash into and it goes into my front jeans pocket.
But I usually do need a purse because of all the other misc things I carry.

I love purses but I go through phases of not using one. I just started using one again because I had something happen. I went to the store had two bags to carry back into our apt. I stuck my rent money in envelope inside one of the bags and when I got upstairs I noticed the bag was tore envelope was gone. I ran down and money was already taken. I looked everywhere...my husband was on duty and drove down he looked everywhere. I was sick over it. It was my fault 100% but I just wish someone would have turned it in. The envelope had out last name and apt number on it with the words "rent money " wrote. Plus everyone knows my DH so they know where we live and could have brought it to us. Now I carry my purse.
