What do we carry that big bag for anyway. I've seen some girls bags that are big enough to carry a body. Do we need all that's stuff in their? I've seen some purses that aren't as big as your hand. what can you get in that? Let me know.

What's really funny is when those girls make their husband or boyfriend carry their body, and they do. I don't need or like to carry a lot of stuff. It's all the more I'll loose if I forget it someplace or it's stolen. Plus, you can never find what you want anyway. Or the thing you want is at the bottom and you don't want to have to dig through or empty your entire purse in public. If I can get away with it I just carry what I can in my pockets.

I do that a lot. I'll leave my purse in the car, and just take what I need in my pocket. 1 key, and money. makes it so much easier. Thanks.......:-)

You are the second person that carries an umbrella, Does it rain a lot where you live. I don't even think I have one in my car. I have to get a not pad. I believe I'm the only one in the world who doesn't have one. Thanks for the response. ;-)

i like my bags over-sized, like the really big ones. It's not that i have so much stuff in it I just wanna be prepared like if i go shopping I can stuff all the things I bought in it. Sometimes I bring along extra set of clothes if I'm planning to stay over somewhere. The things that are always in my bag are the following: my wallet mobile phone charger digital cam usb cable comb headband hair tie lip gloss ids medicine pouch keys well, yeah there's a lot of stuff in my bag.

That's funny, You put your shopping items in your bag. I don't believe I've had that answer. My sons GF also puts cloths in her purse, She has to have a large purse too. She carries mostly the same things. Must be a kid thing Huh. ;-)

I would say my purse is medium sized. I carry my wallet and credit cards along with my license. I have the check books in there with a calculator. I also have tissue and advil. I have to carry candy or something with me at all times in case my sugar drops, and I usually have my glucose meter with me for the same reason. Then I have some extra stuff like business cards and finger nail clippers, hand sanitizer and a zip drive that I just keep in there so it's with me. Some of this I definitely dont' HAVE to carry around with me. My purse isn't overly full though. I still have room for alot more junk..lol

I have a medium size bag also, but I'd say mine is pretty close to full. I have a lit of junk I don't need for some reason. I was looking for something one day, I had to pull out almost everything, a lady ask, how much stuff will that bag hold. It was kind of funny.

My purses are almost all medium sized, I generally carry my wallet a pad and a pen, some make up items and some personal items. My bag is never really that full. Cheers, Tianna

You know, that is something I don't have in my purse is a note pad. Plenty of pens. I'm always looking for something to write on. I guess I should get on. All my purses are medium size also. I tried a small one. Bad idea. Thanks for the comment. :-)

I usually carry the same bag for a couple of weeks. So I don't base it on where I go. I guess I just base it on how I fill. When I fill like changing purses I do. But I carry a lot more stuff than that. I guess I don't need it all. Thanks for the comment.;-)

I definitely don't need the huge bag, but when I carry one, I end up filling it full. When my kids were younger, I remember them bringing me everything to put in my purse, including shoes! My ex- always used to give me his sunglasses and his keys. and if we were ever out someplace where they gave us programs or something, I had to have that in my purse as well. When I go on girls nights with my little group of best friends, we usually carry one fairly small little bag. We call it the bag of life, and we take turns being responsible for it. LOL It has to hold IDs, Lip sticks, money, and a cell phone. You become fairly minimalistic when you don't want to watch a big bag all night. The size of my bag now, depends mostly on my mood at the time.

Almost all my purses mean somthing to me. A friend gave it to me for a gift, or I was with someone when I bought it. I even one that has my kids pictures on it. I always have to have my bag with me, but I sometimes leave it in the car when I'm shopping.

I have a habbit of carrying around huge bags! I usually put my wallet, keys, cell phone, emergancy charger, makeup, a small umbrella, pens and a notepad, and a coin purse. I can never seem to fit anything in a smaller bag!

That's a lot of stuff. An umbrella, is it gonna rain? I have a wallet, and all the stuff that goes in it, a checkbook and cover for it, lots of receipt for some reason, and all my change is just thrown in my purse. Its pretty heavy. I can't fit any thing in a small purse either. I've tried. :-)
