wallet is overstuffed

took me years to find the perfect one.. I refused to buy one big enought because I thought it would be too big- but I just need it and now I'm so happy and inspired other to buy the same wallet..
so just go for it- buy a bigger one

I'm ashamed to say that my husband calls my wallet a "George Costanza wallet" (Seinfeld fans will get it). I tend to overstuff it though, with receipts, etc.
I get it!!!!!!
I used to have that same problem. Now I have 2 wallets, one I keep at home and one I carry with me. I only carry around 3 credit cards with me and leave the rest in the wallet at home. If I need to use a special card, then I simply take it out. And I try to clean out all my receipts at the end of the week.
I used to stuff my wallet full of membership cards and things like that. More than one card per slot. I found it was just ruining my wallet, plus I couldn't ever close the stupid thing. Finally I bought a mini skinny (I have mostly Coach stuff) and put all my business cards and membership cards in there, and my wallet is perfect now. 
The long LV Epi is very spacious as are the Mulberrys with lots of clever sections - and I speak as a 'cram it all in' kind of girl!
This is exactly what I do. When I tried to carry everything, I would end up having receipts and cards floating around in my bag because I was too lazy to wedge them into my wallet. Now I keep a wallet at home with all my store-specific and gift cards and just take the essentials. I also started keeping receipts that I need to save in a file folder instead of in my wallet.
It's hard to keep a wallet "light" if you have a large coin compartment and tons of CC....i have wallets of varying sizes, and try to never put receipts or business cards in it to weigh it down.
ya i use my mono-clés for coins and extra cards. we have $1 and 2 coins in Canada so there is no way to put all that in a wallet. but we also have to carry government health insurance cards, plus supplemental insurance cards from work, then all the banking and credit cards...it adds up!
LMAO - My dh has a George Costanza wallet!!!! I found a slim IF Carnaby St wallet fits all of my essentials. I leave my odd ball extra cards in a HUGE overflow that I leave at home... if I need a video shop card guaranteed dh has one in his monster!

Same here! I got a mini skinny and put all my random cards in there.
