Ladies we are all very busy and on the go. It's seems my purse is the dumping ground for everything. Today it was feeling really heavy so I decided to clean it out. Here are just a few of the things it contained: a bottle of water, an empty baby bottle (yes my 2yr old is still on the bottle at times, smh), a sand shovel (guess the 2yr old put that in there too), hand sanitizer, a change purse full of change, and get this my husband's wallet!?!? Seriously am I the only one who has this problem????

    Hm, here we go.

    My handbag contains...my purse, my keys (including my USB keyring which has my entire life and career on it), my phone, my hairbrush, my umbrella, a cinema ticket, a supermarket receipt, my personal diary and my work diary. some hair ties, three pens, a lip gloss and an SD memory card (the last one is the only thing that shouldn't be in there).

    ughh too much. I hate having a purse. I wish women's jeans had big pockets like men's do.

    My wallet, phone, keys, nail file, like 5 different things of chap stick/lip gloss, a bunch of crumpled up receipts, change (as in coins) that fell out of my wallet lol, gum, birth control, napkins, a happy meal toy for my son, a bottle of some type of pain reliever that my boyfriend left in there, a crayon, powder for my face, knife, and some trash.

    are you really THAT bored?

    It's not really about boredom... they just get so full and all of a sudden you're carrying around 10-12 lbs of junk! :P

    Wallet, inhaler, epi-pen (in case I run into some seafood), three or four lipsticks I never use, keys, cellphone, Tylenol (I get a lot of headaches!), chapstick, wedding invitations. Those don't stay there. Oh, and some tampons, because even when I don't need them, the girls are work who don't carry purses DO! Also gas receipts, the occasional snack item, and right now, the belt to my favorite dress? Why is that there? I occasionally throw a small crochet project in there, or a book, too.

    If my purse weighed 10-12 pounds I would leave it that full and track it as strength training in MFP! :laugh:

    must be a language thing...

    here a purse is the thing with money in, and maybe credit cards...

    All the other crap goes in a handbag along with the purse...but I don't carry a handbag and all that stuff, I carry a the money in my bra if I have no pocket. I never take make up or anything else for that matter anywhere with me. If I can I get my Husband to carry the money and then I have just my phone, the phone is the vital thing lol

    I don't carry a purse. With two kids and all their stuff, I already have enough to carry. I Just have my keys, phone, and my debit card in my pockets. Everything else I leave in the car.

    What is in my purse? Another purse. I made a purse a few weeks ago, and didn't have the time to switch everything over, so I just dropped the smaller one in the new one. My husband thinks it's weird.

    Other than that, the usual stuff, keys, phone, pen, checkbook, cards, receipts, change, ID.

    I've never carried a purse, never saw the point when I can fit my ID/cards, keys, and phone into my pockets. But I end up carrying my backpack for law school every day and that weighs 20-30 pounds, depending on the day! That's my laptop, mouse, charger, a few thumb drives, casebooks, loose paper printouts, sweater, a dozen pens, aspirin, hand sanitizer, water bottle, wallet, hairbrush, and earrings (the last two for impromptu networking events). Did I mention that my commute includes a few miles of walking? Let me tell you, I look forward to the weekends!
