Do you have a "fat" wallet? Have you ever had trouble to sit comfortably while keeping your wallet in your back pocket?
A big, fat wallet might be a sign of prosperity, but when it's getting too big even for your pocket, it's a sign to call for some house-keeping. You may have already used to sitting with a lump on your butt cheek, but scientifically this lump can cause you back pain, namely the hip-pocket syndrome.
Personally I always avoid sitting with a fat wallet for the sake of my debit and credit cards. I actually cracked my ATM card once. :P #TrueStory
Here's a guide on how to reduce the size of your wallet:
Audit Your Wallet Regularly
Wallet vs iPhone |
Wallet requires some spring cleaning once in a while. Technically, it's not difficult to check and clean your wallet, but making it a habit is a different story. Try to check your wallet once a week to remove unnecessary things and I think that's the "diet plan" your wallet needs.
File Your Receipts
I know, because I kept all my credit cards receipts in my wallet too :) If you still can find a receipt dated last few months, you probably need to start working on your personal filing system. Besides, some receipts fade really fast so it's it's best to file them before it's too late.
Remove Coins
Coins not only bloat your wallet, they also damage your wallet.
Only Keep Frequently Use Cards
Remove the less popular cards from your wallet. You don't always need all the cards, especially membership cards.
Remove Pictures
Well, you can always keep your photos in your smartphone.
Choose The Right Wallet
Always go for slimmer wallet design with less compartment or layers. Go for wallets that are minimal in design in order to reduce the bulk. For example, try to avoid zippers, 3-fold-design and thick leather or fabric.
Hope this post is helpful to you. :)
