Organize Your Wallet

That huge bulky thing full of old receipts, change, and plastic cards is stabbing you in the leg and it seems it is just there to bother you. This article will show you how to organize your wallet to where it is toned down and you won't be embarrassed to open it up.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    The first step in organizing a wallet is to take out any unneeded clutter. This includes old receipts that you won't need (its a good idea to store receipts in some other place at home), trash, or just old business cards.

  2. Step 2

    Once all the trash is clear, take all the cash in your wallet and take out all the one dollar bills. Try your best to get rid of these and only carry larger bills on you when you can.

  3. Step 3

    Next, organize your credit cards and debit cards. For the cards you don't use much, put them in the farthest spots. The cards you use most however should go into a spot that is easily accessible towards the front of the wallet.

  4. Step 4

    Never put change in your wallet. Not only does this make your wallet bulkier, it adds weight and deforms your wallet.

  5. Step 5

    If you think it is time to get a new wallet, go ahead. Getting a new wallet lets you buy something that is more meant for you perhaps if you have more credit cards or less. It also makes it so you have to organize it.
