    Does anyone own a wallet that has Velcro in it?

    I think I've had 2 wallets in the 15 years I've carried one on me. First one last 14 of those years.

    Re: One Hand In My Pocket

    Wallet, phone, keys

    As for the wallet, I carry one of those big checkbook/wallet combo deals. I tried just going with a money clip card holder one and just didn't like it plus I had to keep track of where my checkbook was. I'm sure i look like a dork at the bar pulling this big thing out but it's functionable.

    Or so I have read.

    I've had a black one for about ten years also still in great shape.

    To the OP, I rarely keep anything in my pockets. my phone, keys (which I typical walk around with in my hand) and wallet all come right out of the pockets and onto my desk as soon as I get to work. Needless to say I leave them at the office and restaurants or in my car (not the keys) often.

    You really use your checkbook that much?


    I think I write a total of 2 checks each month, which are put in the mail. Only reason I write them is because a couple bills I pay don't accept online payments for some reason. I'd be perfectly happy if I never had to write another check again.

    Probably 5 a month or so. I just don't want to have to worry about if my checkbook is in my desk or in my pickup or whatever.

    Bank of America online bill pay is awesome. I can put all my bills on there and just type in the amount and the due date for each. If there's someone that doesn't accept online payments they will mail them a check at no cost and they guarantee they receive it on time.

    Re: One Hand In My Pocket

    I generally have chapstick, a pen, knife, and USB drive in my pocket. Never use the USB, but I feel weird without it.

    Also my phone, wallet, and handkerchief. Yes, and I am under 30.
