My regular carry right now when I step out of the house includes:

  • A leather wallet my grandpa gave me (the circle imprints are from the quarters I use to get a shipping cart at aldi)
  • A hankerchief I made with my freind when she taught me how to use a sewing machine for the first time
  • My trusty Casio a700
  • An old field notes notebook. We had a bunch left over from Geo-Caching when I was in scouts a kid
  • A muji gel pen (I adore these pens 10/10)

And my keys with

  • A keychain from when my friend took me to see a league of legends semifinals that was being played near us
  • Two mini library cards
  • And a medication container I keep melatonin and some ADHD meds in (Non-stimulant, not that I expect cops will care if I'm pulled over πŸ˜…)

FYI: The consensus among health experts is that condoms should ideally not be stored in wallets for more than a few days, if not just a few hours. If you must carry a condom in your wallet, it’s best to use it the same day to ensure its integrity.

Those are my quarters for getting a shopping cart at Aldi πŸ˜…

But I appreciate you putting good information out there for folks!

i think those are coins. condoms have more of a ring shape?

[–] Cris_Color 2 points 14 hours ago

Yep, it's a quarter for getting a cart at aldi πŸ˜…

lol and if the condom has been in your wallet long enough to imprint the leather, then you're maybe too optimistic

FYI: there are small plastic cases that protect them from getting pierced/folded. We got them handed out at sex ed some years ago but I'm sure they're still around.

The circles are from quarters so I can get a cart at aldi, but that seems like a handy thing for folks who'd like to carry a condom!
