This is the only wristlet that I use as a wallet. There are 6 card slots but I can actually use a bit more. So I just double up some cards that I don't use as much. And there slots for bills or receipts. The smaller wristlets that Coach offers I use for knick knacks like earbuds, tissue, lip balm..

Hi,
I'm shopping for some wristlets and I read some posts about people using wristlet as a wallet.
I would like that idea and trying to find what kind of wristlets you guys use. The one with card slots or just one opening ones?
How do you store paper money and coins? How about store cards, some store % off coupons, insurance cards, IDs? Do you have several wristlets to sub divide and carry all in your purse? Also if you put phone in your wristlet, wouldn't it be chore to answer the phone (with having to open/close the wristlets every time you hear the ring?)
I'm trying to get some ideas.
TIA

The Legacy Zippy wallet is my favorite Coach wallet; It has card slots, a couple slip pockets for bills, and a zip pocket on the outside which is useful for coins. I also like my phone wallet, because it has an exterior slide pocket that holds my Metro card snugly, but it doesn't hold coins, so that's a pain...

I keep a universal case wristlet in bag that can double as a wallet for quick trips that I don't need to carry a bigger bag . Fits phone , cards and and folded bills and easy to open quickly while on wrist.

Just wanted to throw out this idea - I was able to get rid of all those store and reward cards by using the app Key Ring You upload pics of your cards and /or enter the info and it will generate the bar code for you. The store can scan the barcode right from your phone.

You know, in case you're trying to make space in your bag instead of buying a bigger one! :laugh:

This is genius! Thanks for sharing!

I still use a big continental size wallet because I just like having my cards organized, but I've started putting all the other contents of my bag into two large legacy wristlets, and it works really well for me since I change bags almost every day. The are about the same overall size as my wallet so everything fits together nicely in the bag. It also helps to give a little structure to my smooshier bags.

Are those large legacy wristlets similar to the folios, such as the Snoopy line, Whiplash, etc. that are out now?

They're a bit smaller. They measure 8 1/4" x 5 1/4." I think the folios are at least A4 size?

I see. The folios are pretty large. I am supposed to be getting a large Snoopy one approximately 10x8, in the reorders that will come out in March. I have no idea what to do with it, but I love your idea of keeping a lot of items in it to easily transfer purses. I think I will have to copy that!
