Since my last post I redecorated the house so thought I'd do the same to my wallet..
So, I now carry the following:
In prominent place:
Capital One Aspire World (cash back)
TSB Amex (Avios and it's a nice looking card)
Post Office Platinum (for foreign spend)
Diners Club (well, its nostalgic)
Hidden Away:
Marriott Rewards Mastercard (for when I stay in Marriott with work)
First Direct debit (occasionally I need cash!)
Driving licence (for when I get stopped by the law - local police don't like car drivers)
Priority Pass (for when Im not travelling in business class)Never argue with an idiot. Especially not this idiot because I'm always right anyway.0 -
It's all I need really:
1x Barclays Wealth debit card (VISA)
1x ICBC debit card (UnionPay)
Cash: GBP, EUR, RMB
Also small quantities of lint, but that's incidental.
Everything else can be done online, so why carry a card for it?0 -

Not a lot;
Driving license
RAC breakdown card
Tesco Clubcard
Natwest YourPoints Credit Card
Natwest Current Account Debit Card
Halifax Current Account Debit Card
And that's it! I hate to have a messy wallet! Keep all my other cards at home and hardly ever use cash. Can't stand having coins...0 -
Relatively simple, I guess:
- Club Lloyds Joint Debit Card
- Lloyds Debit Card (personal account)
- Provisional License
- University ID Card
- Expired NUS card
- Tesco Clubcard (technically on my keyring)
- Odeon Premiere Club Card
- Waterstones Card (very old!)
- Banardos Gift Aid Card
- NHS Organ Donor Card
University card is the best thing I have there. I've just graduated but there's no expiry date. Plenty of places accept it for student discounts, unless they're aware it HAS to be NUS. So I can use it as long as I look like the picture :P0
