I don't use a wallet and I'm tired of taking my bulky wallet everywhere, even if I only have to run to the store for one thing. I bought this wallet thinking it would be more handy for quick trips where you don't need a full wallet. I love this shop! I throw in my driver's license, insurance cards, a $20 bill, and two credit cards and just toss them in my wallet when I feel like I really need to take everything else with me. Otherwise, it fits perfectly in one of my back pockets so I can keep my hands free instead of grabbing my wallet in one hand and trying to carry other things I need for a quick shopping spree with the other. It doesn't really feel heavy or thick, so that's not a problem at all.
