Check men's clothing stores and department stores for money clips. They are usually near the men's wallets and ties. There will be a few choices, but not nearly as many as you'll find online.

Consider a wallet and money clip combination. You can purchase leather wallets with a sleeve for your license and a few credit cards. Attached to the outside is a magnetic clip to hold your bills. It's much smaller and more accessible than a typical wallet.
