Being acutely aware cards can drop out of a phone case I only carry one routinely - the one I use for the joint account for groceries etc Plus my bus pass card as that’s the way I most often travel nowadays apart from walking.If we’re going to a supermarket or other large shop I keep my phone plus traditional wallet down the bottom of my rucksack to avoid accidental loss or theft by pickpockets - they sometimes steal phones from jeans back pockets by us.Plus in the phone case a £5 and a £10 note.I also carry a tiny soft leather coin purse I bought in Halle (near Berlin). So quick that way to get your hand on a selection of change.
