No, damnit...I'm in Toronto and there's a dearth of Bal accessories. I'm trying to figure this out "virtually" and it's a bit difficult. It LOOKS to me like the large Compagnon (moto) probably holds more...and snaps worry me with my over-stuffing habit (I'd rather bust the zipper!!
), but the money looks fairly roomy too. Thanks for your input...we both apparently have the receipt habit which is a pain-in-the butt to both HAVE and to BREAK!
LOL!! I hear your pain. I'm in Montreal and experience the same issue
Maybe I can help a bit with my experience. I own a mini-compagnon and am very satisfied with it. I really enjoy a zip around wallet though. I'm also a receipt accumulator :shame: and I find the mini-c can hold quite a bit although never as much as the compagnon that's for certain! That makes me happy though 'cause it helps keep me in check. As far as plastic goes I have a regular amount and it all fits in there - but - I do put two cards per slot and it works for me. The compagnon on the other hand can accommodate a lot of cards. Also, I have no children so I carry much less than a mommy would, if I were a mommy the mini-c would definitely be too small and I would be going the compagnon route.
Something you need to consider as well when choosing a wallet is the size of your most frequently used bags. For example if you're a First girl you might find the compagnon taking all the space in your bag and a mini-c would be a better choice. If you own more of the bigger bags like Day and City or Work, then the regular compagnon would be ideal in my opinion as it will best answer your needs.
I've attached a few pics of my mini-c with all my stuff in it - hope it hepls!
Apart from the money ($$bills$$) compartment which is very deep and has lots of space to stuff receipts in :shame:... the mini-c has:
- Left side: 1 change compartment and 2 slide in compartments.
- Right side has: 2 slide-in compartments and 5 card slots.
- Measurements: 5¼" wide x 4¾" high x 1" thick
When I first bought my mini-c I was worried it wouldn't fit all of my stuff but finally it does so wonderfully with space to spare!
It's also a great size to handle.
Best of Luck in your decision!
