My wallet just has a debit card, a supermarket card, my European Union health card and an age card thing. If I'm carrying a handbag I usually have my wallet, one or two sets of keys and sunglasses. I rarely carry cash and if I'm going to need someone I just withdraw it on the way to where I'm going, there's an atm near my apartment building.

No, it's an Irish card that does nothing but verify your age.

Are you comfortable carrying all that around with you? Are all four cards contactless? If so then I'll come round myself, crack you around the head and take them off you. Just my opinion but I think thats quite dangerous. Do you carry your phone around with them too? If someone takes the cards and the phone then it may be hours before you can cancel them. :think:

Most cards now won't be able to be used contactless after a few transactions and most banks will refund you the money anyway if your card gets stolen

I think the approach of strictly limiting what you take out everytime seems a bit ott providing you don't leave your wallet lying around and keep your wits about you for pickpockets etc. No one can tell what you've got in your wallet though and the odds of being mugged randomly are pretty slim

I have three cards that I use but never ever carry more than one on me. Cash is a weakness for me but now I've disciplined myself to only making cash withdrawals from the same ATM so I can track them better. I carry around one of the cards, a bunch of loyaylty cards and never more than a fiver and that if I really really need to pay cash. I'm trying to phase it out of my budgets.

Most people don't live in London so have zero fear of being mugged

You're more likely to be mugged for your ready cash than your cards. And less likely to get that money back.

I hear what you guys are saying but for the last two years I've been trying to get my credit score up so I've been doing loads of research into banks and credit etc so if someone pulls out a nice credit card while I'm in the queue at Aldi, I notice. So if I notice I think others do to. Thats all I'm saying

Don't be ridiculous. Muggers would take that.

£17.35, a debit card, three credit cards, AA membership card, Historic Scotland cards, Pets@Home membership card :joker:.

I hardly ever carry my wallet though.

In my phone case I have one debit card, driving license and £50 cash tucked in the back for emergencies. I don't really use cash but you never know when someone's going to ambush you with "Sorreh pal we don't take caaard".
