    I have these little dudes that I got from a vending machine that my son didn't want. A voodoo doll, an alien, and this weird blue dude. I call them my "Purse protectors".

    I have at least a dozen fortunes from fortune cookies in my purse. I save them with the intention of doing some sort of art project with them some day, but then tend to just collect in the bottom of my purse.

    I also have 4 tubes of lip balm- the same lip balm. I keep forgetting there's already one in my purse and I throw another one in when my lips get chapped.

    Nothing. And I do mean nothing. I have 5 cards in my wallet and that's it. I rarely carry a purse! and when I do, add lipstick.

    I love that idea! One time I got a fortune cookie that said something about getting a decent promotion soon.

    I'm a SAHM and my daughter said "well... hehe.. maybe you'll get promoted to grandmother" She got the death glare.

    A hot pink ice scraper (same size & shape as a credit card). Only reason this is strange is b/c I live in central Texas where we RARELY get ice! (My Dad gave it to me a few years ago when we visited him for Chirstmas; he lives where I grew up in IA) :laugh:

    This little thing. It's a toy edamame that you can poke the little beans out of. :)

    I have a photo of a random man I have never met before.

    I used to check client documents for a bank and my colleagues found a random pile of passport photos in the back of a cupboard, so we took one each and made up a long winded story about them.

    My one's name was Stavros and he was a greek kebab shop owner......
    clearly that was a boring day at work! But it's been about 5 years and I still have his photo in my purse!!

    Emergency corkscrew. Twice now I have been in a hotel with a nice bottle of wine and no corkscrew, so as a joke my BFF got me a small corkscrew to keep in my purse for "emergencies". :drinker:
