The Big Skinny – Wallet That Is

by denice

I’m not a big one for carrying a purse.  I have left them in restaurants and restrooms.  I never know what to do with them when grocery shopping, I mean do you carry it on your arm while trying to pick out meat?  Do you put it in the basket and hope no one walks off with it?  For that reason I opt for not carrying one unless it’s absolutely necessary.

I usually carry a coin purse in the front pocket of my jeans since but there are times the edges or zipper sticks out and i get stuck in the gut with the thing.  Not the most pleasant feeling.  Then I discovered the Big Skinny.  Big Skinny is marketed as the “World’s thinnest, smallest and lightest wallets“  in fact it’s a wallet that’s made to be carried in a pocket.  It’s thinner and actually smaller than my coin purse. It holds as much if not more than my coin purse but it’s not as bulky.  It fits nicely in my pocket as well as the purse I carry on that rare occasion.

Big Skinny comes in a variety of styles, colors and materials.  I chose the nylon Taxicat wallet in smoky teal and I absolutely love it.  It’s got a small zipper compartment for carrying change, several pockets for credit cards and store discount cards as well as drivers license, insurance cards and a large pocket for bills.  No more folding my money and hoping it doesn’t get stuck in the zipper of the coin purse.  Then the Big Skinny folds over and is held by a magnetic snap.  It’s great, just get the tab in the general area and it grabs hold and won’t let go unless you pull them apart to open it.  Did I say I love this thing.

Big Skinny is not only made for women but they have men’s styles as well.  I’m sure there’s not a man out there that wouldn’t mind a nice thin wallet for Father’s Day, a birthday or a just because gift.

To see all the styles available and get your own Big Skinny visit their website at www.bigskinny.net.  I’m sure you’ll fall in love with at least one if not more of their styles.   I mean so many to choose from,  bi-fold, tri-fold, clutch, wide, narrow, whatever your style Big Skinny’s got it.

Not a bad idea for a woman, but I fail to see the appeal for a man.

It might just be the picture but it doesn’t look very pretty. Useful tho :) However, I still prefer to carry a handbag.

Looks like a good alternative to a purse or a really bulky wallet.

Many times my husband will run behind me and say I almost left my purse in a store. It really scares me sometimes. Although that looks more geared towards a man, I may need to use it from time to time. Thanks for the article

For someone like me who is very unorganized and loses his wallet a lot its not such a good idea, but for those who can keep a good tab on where their stuff is its great! Nice post MomGadget!

This is probably a good choice for a woman, but definitely not a good one for a man that always has a lot of money, credit cards and ID-s with him :)
