What’s in your purse?

Northern Living Allowance has done it, Revanche has done it, I believe Serendipity did it, even J. Money showed his. *If I didn’t include you in this list and you did it (cuz there are more of you, I’ve seen it), let me know and I’d be happy to add you. :)

Showing the goods. I broke down and thought I’d join the fun for a weekend. Here is mine:
purse
Ya, I could actually live out of mine. Oh wait, I don’t have a clean underwear in my purse. Maybe not, but I have a toothbrush!

Let see, clockwise:

  • Wallet, no $, no credit cards
  • My journal for writing down last minute ideas, my budget book to keep us on track, and a pen to make sure there is no excuses
  • I love to print stuff out – holiday recipes, blog writing ideas, and whatever else looks good
  • sun glasses, chapstick, keys, blackberry, work badge, spa certificate (thinking about selling), “mom” keychain, and Dave & Buster cards racked up with points
  • Purse from Kohl’s – totally comfy and probably too big
  • Bag with toothbrush & toothpaste, retainer case, eye glasses, -n- stuff

 

Well that concludes my purse items. Dare to share yours? Hope you are having a great weekend.

This is one of those instances where being a guy is a beneficial thing.

I carry: keys, sunglasses, wallet.

That’s about it.

I always use a smaller sized purse. All I have in mine is:

- Wallet (typically less than $5, debit card)
- Medications
- 2 pens
- Chapstick
- Sweet & Low
- Feminine Products
- Notes (usually on Post-its because I think of them at work)

Hi Beckey,
Thanks for sharing. I typically don’t carry cash at all. My husband is always trying to shove some cash in my wallet for possible emergencies. I’m a debit kind of gal. Like how you carry your own sweet & low. ;)

I have to carry the sweet & low. I don’t like Splenda or the blue packaged one (can’t remember the name right now). Sometimes I’ll have coffee somewhere and they mess up and use Splenda instead, I can definitely tell the difference!

My mother is diabetic. So I am going to try and make gingersnap cookies with Splenda. I am kind of cautious about it cuz I don’t believe in Splenda. But will give it a try. I’m a sweet & low kind of girl, too. :)

You mean I have too much stuff in it right? LOL. I’ve tried to empty it but it keeps filling up again! Oh well! Although, for quick trips I tend to throw the wallet, keys and sunglasses. This big bag is more during the week traveling to work bag.

Hehe, thanks for the mention! It’s actually kind of organized for the amount of stuff you’ve got in there :)

Will you please tell me where you had read or seen the information for banks not coming after you in the state for Florida for the difference after a foreclosure. If you have the link that would be great!!! Greatly Appreciate It!

Janusin, I am sorry. I think I briefly remember talking about foreclosure on a blog and that there is a bank program allowing a homeowner to walk away from their home and recieving money for it. But I do not know anything about the state of Florida not coming after you for the difference in a foreclosure.

Wish I could help. If I do find something, I will be sure to email you with the information.
