Bought this for vacation, but ended up using it year round

I bought this slim metal wallet for days on Cape Cod when I needed a credit card and identification and some folded bills, but didn't want to have a thick wallet in my shorts.

Turns out, you never need a thick wallet.  A chiropractor warned me years ago about the dangers of sitting with a big wallet in your back pocket, and it turns out that chucking the wallet is an easy bit of health advice to follow.

I don't really need to have my library card with me all time, or the 5-6 supermarket loyalty cards I typically carried in the fat leather wallet. And the two business cards I'd been hanging onto just because I liked the design?  Why had I been walking around with those for 18 months?

Of all the minimalist travel tips and hacks I describe in the book, this slim wallet is the one I use the most - at home as well as on the road.
