I guess I'm starting this thread b/c I feel silly for compulsively
reshuffling stuff in the different pockets of my new bag but then again
we all have stuff we want to bury deep in our bags and things we need
to grab quickly and maybe some of these change from day to day. And
pockets are big this spring from high end bags down to low end. Is
anyone else doing this reshuffle w/ new handbags? On a related note,
who's trying to purge the amount of stuff they carry? What are you
keeping and what's going?

I've found myself trying to shrink what would normally be a regular sized
wallet with cards and change into something smaller and smaller. It
started with the pullout ID case in one of my smaller Lodis wallets.
Then I found a more elaborate Lodis ID case on eBay that had room for
more cards and a zipper change purse in the center, and that became where
I kept my license and "vital" credit cards. But the zipper part wasn't
large enough to hold more than a dollar and a quarter, so I found a round
pink leather zipper change purse at the Coach outlet for carrying cash.
Then I wanted to downsize out of the original wallet entirely, since by
then it was only holding all the other cards (medical, ATM, etc) and
various receipts. Coach outlet to the rescue again, with a bright pink
case that is designed only to hold cards, and a lot of them. (Levenger
makes a similar style, but I found the Coach one for a better price.)
So now I'm carrying three separate items instead of a single wallet, but
together they take up much less space in my bag, especially since the ID
and change cases together can fit in any tiny inner wall zip pocket.
It's just a shame I went and bought all kinds of regular wallets before I
came to this revelation of carrying everything in a much less bulky way.
