Tips to Make Your Wallet Thinner
There are some good tips at this LifeClever post about keeping your wallet thin. It starts with some thin-wallet recommendations. Some are similar to my previous posts (Jimi Wallet and super thin wallets)
He also recommends keeping your wallet contents to a minimum by excluding items like photos. Last year I mentioned an alternative for the photo-lovers by using a digital photo viewer.
Another thing to exclude in your wallet are excess credit or debit cards. He recommends keeping just one. I would actually recommend keeping at least one credit card AND one debit card. I prefer credit cards so I can get cash back on my purchases (I always pay off my balance). A debit card came in very useful last year when my car got towed, and the tow facility only took cash or debit cards. The tow cost was $190 which was more than what I had in cash. The debit card is also useful at ATMs.

Always leave contact info in the wallet, regardless of how thin you would like it to be. Of course, the more, often the better, as the contents of this long misplaced wallet brought back a flood of memories:

It's a detail I never overlook!
I purchashed the Storus Smart Money Clip for my Father and Brother and they really enjoyed them. It truly slims down your wallet and is more secure in your front pocket. You can check out the Storus Products at www.storus.com
I read this and wanted to say that i have found a great solution for making your wallet thinner called the smart money clip. Holds from 1-5 credit cards and up to 30 bills.
Don't worry about thinning your wallet--it may be a lifesaver! Another true story about the good karma of a thick wallet:

My "hunk of wallet" largesse that is almost constantly with me makes a great companion!
I have their wallet and card case. In the wallet I carry cash and nothing else. It’s worked for me for two years now and I have never been happier or more comfortable with my wallet solution.
Wallets are classic and important to the "opposite sex." Great wallets are large enough to hold essentials without stacking--thus smaller and more comfortable in the long run. A great leather wallet is essential for innately appealing to the opposite sex:

While you can use tips to slim up your wallet, if you don't have many things to begin with then having a thick wallet is pointless. The slimmy wallet by korono is one of the most popular slim wallets out there. Just keep in mind that you won't be able to fit very much in it.
Wallet is a lifesaver:

Good karma from a thick wallet! Besides, it feels good--I know it's there, where it belongs!
