A girly topic for you blokes! Which wallet?

[rocket256]

Has anyone found a working discount code for the iconic?

I stick my woolworth and coles barcodes on my david jones amex (2.25qfpt/$) which saves 2 card spots.

Also don't have to carry the wow and Coles cards at all.

Do many people do this? It seems like a pretty good idea. Any troubles with scanning the photocopy bar code?

I just take a photo, the scanners at both chains have no issues with screen dumps.

You can try this: THE ICONIC Coupon Codes | Discount | Promotion Online |

However the coupon wont work with items that are shipped by other suppliers such as Bellroy.

At the bottom of that page there is "SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER AND GET A $10 VOUCHER", better than nothing.

Be warned you'll be getting constant emails from them..not much of a problem if you can write some filtering rules though

Or just unsubscribe after getting the voucher.

If you look at ozbargain at the moment, there is a $20 coupon available for this website.

As I am new I am not able to post a link unfortunately, but look for "$20 Voucher for The ICONIC from Yellowtail Wines (No Min. Spend/Not Incl. Shipping)"

SURFSTITCH - AUSTRALIA'S #1 FOR SURF & FASHION | Surf | Snow | Skate | Fashion Store has the Bellroy travel wallet in stock, if you sign up to their newsletter you can get $20 off, but there's a better code 20usa seems to be taking about USD$20 off the price of each item. I can't get the two to stack up however.

It says they don't work well with laser scanners.

I just save the Everyday Rewards card barcode in my phone.

I was out with a couple of AFF luminaries last Grand Final night and did actually witness which wallet they use - firstly cove:



And serfty:



And later that night penegal joined us for a drink - but he didn't bring his wallet - he borrowed mine instead:



For the record: Those of you who have never met penegal the resemblance above is uncanny!

Could be improved by showing cove marching away from the ATO .

I have a barcode generator that I use as part of my business so I create a small excel spreadsheet - 1 column each for the title (WOW etc) the other column contains the barcode. This document is then laminated business card size.

For about the last 10 years I've used a "European" style coat wallet which is longer and thinner than the typical AU/USA wallet.

I had a Burberry one which only held about 8 cards and 3 or 4 dividers for different notes, but I picked up the one below in Korea about 10 years ago. It can hold 12 cards, and has 5 dividers for different notes. Haven't found a note yet which won't fit.

Nowhere near as bulky as the 'traditional' wallet, but in 'traditional' style jeans or trousers (short pockets on the cough) the wallet will poke out the top, but fine for inner pocket on jacket,coat or in backpack/briefcase.

You will have to bring it with you to the September event so we can have a look.

I hope you hold onto it carefully! I like my passport and cards to be on my body at all times.

I never put my wallet in a back pocket (aka the 'sucker pocket'). The Bell Roy travel wallet slides more neatly into the front packet of my jeans than my previous wallet. I think that is partly the result of a very good quality leather that has a nice firm, slippery finish.

Last year for the first time in 40+ years of travel in various parts of the world I lost my travel wallet and cards and cash in a business lounge at HKG. I was impressed at Visa's quick response (fortunately my passport was in a shirt pocket along with about 80 euros which was just enough to survive till the replacement Visa card arrived. I'm interested in the Bell Roy wallet but my main solution is to wear chinos with front pockets. I'll also take a Qantas Cash Card in future since I can load it from my Oz bank account but it can be stored somewhere else - not a disaster if lost.

I just take photos of all my loyalty cards with my smartphone and have them in a separate album. Works well for bar codes and membership numbers. Passport gets tucked into shirt pocket or cargo pants/shorts pocket. For overseas travel I have a small wallet that takes care of a couple of credit cards, drivers license and QF loyalty card. I purchased the leather bi-fold Armani wallet from a "reputable" merchant in KUL.

Or you can memorise them?

And if memorising is not your forte you can keep all loyalty membership numbers coded in a text document that you can print and store.

I read this thread for ideas on getting 7 wallets that include credit cards,loyalty cards,id cards,health cards,Social Security card into a more compact format to fit in my Zanella or Dockers trousers. Long wallets and fat wallets are useless so I am still looking.

Let us know when you find the TARDIS of wallets! Mine is fat and I'm coming to the conclusion that I need to rationalise the cards. I'm sure I'm getting curvature of the spine as the right cheek is 40mm higher than the left when sitting! :shock: (Too much information?)
