I put my money, credit card, id, keys, and cell phone in my pockets. I do not have a purse or wallet that I use.

I put my money in my pants pocket instead of carrying a wallet. I feel my money is safe when I put them on my pants pocket instead of wallet. Wallet when put in back pocket are usually bulky, And bulky pocket usually invites snatchers and the likes. For security purpose I also do not bring my credit cards, and only bring one ID when am not going to use them, I feel safer from pick pokets and at the same time, saving my self from trouble of replacing all my ID' just incase I lost them :)

wALLETS COME IN VARIOUS SIZES FOPR THIS REASON. mINE IS SMALL AND DOESN'T SEEM TO BOTHER ME IN MY POSKETS. aLSO A SAFE WAY TO CARRY A SMALLER WALLET Is in the front pocket to thwart pickpockets as well. Got to be safe when traveling too. Sorry bout the caps locked. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I put my money in my wallet and carry my wallet in my purse. I want to make sure the money is put away.

I mostly use my debit card but when I do have cash I will carry it in my pocket if im going to use it right away. Otherwise everything goes in my wallet.

I keep my money in my wallet most times. Unless I am out and about a lot during the day that is. I also tend to be a stickler about the way it's arranged in my wallet. This is my compulsive side showing now. I bend back all dog ear folds. I have to have the bills all facing the same way in order of denomination as well. I hate helping the wife count her bills in her register at closing time as she doesn't keep any order of the bills other than in order. They are folded and backwards etc. HAHAHA!! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Money? What is this Money you speak of? I seem to remember having some long ago before I had a wife & kids maybe but I'm not sure. Was it like little metal discs & green pieces of paper? Perhaps if someone on here sent me some I could remember better... If I had some I'd put it in my wallet. My wife keeps it pretty well cleaned out for me so I know there's room.

Hi uath.Hahaha,we had a friend once who made money,met his future wife,she helped herself alot,cleaned him out and he lost everything and divorced her butt,which she even cleaned that out too,hahaha.Sad.Its hard to make money and then have someone else help themselves to it.I would not like it,but its you.If it doesnt bother you,well thats all that matters.Family does cost alot,its not like when we are single and have no dependencys thriving on us.I have a tight budget that i stick too,it works out well.We are not wanting something,but instead were are living happily.

Well When I go to work thats when I usally carry money with me in my wallet because I always get thirsty and I need money to buy my drinks so thats why I always try to keep a few dollars in my wallet. I also keep money because I never know when im going to want some food since I work at stop and shop and I get urges to want some food a lot of the times.

Hi, I usually take two wallets and also keep my cards and money in both. This is done when I go for a long distance journey. Bulk shopping I use cards mostly and other I take a bit of liquid cash.

This is a great question =] I'm a big mixture of the two. If I am going to take a bag with me, then I will have my money in my wallet, but sometimes I don't want to carry anything at all, except after purchase, so I just have any money, ID, keys etc that I may need in my pocket. =D I like to keep my hands free, so if there's no bag, then it's in the pocket... and if I don't have pockets, I often stash my money in my bra =P
