I feel like I'm yakking to myself here but anyways I got this hipster wallet from Amazon for $18 now it's $9. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000UZBWA2/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1363059051&sr=8-1&pi=SL75

the wallet must be really fat with all those cards in it

While not strictly a wallet, I've been using this as my wallet for over 10 years. I bought two of them just in case one broke, and I've yet to touch the second one. At $2.00 each (when I purchased it) + $1.61 for shipping, I figured why not just get a backup.

It's slim enough to keep in my front pocket. It is the size of credit cards inside with a small leather divider on the inside. It's pretty water resistant and obviously genuine leather. Plus, the zipper means you can keep coins (if you're in Israel or some other country that uses coins more) in it without them falling out.

More importantly, the guy who runs (ran?, I haven't checked recently) the company is really honest and nice. That's why he only charged me $1.61 for shipping: that's all it costed. He even sent an old fashioned cash register receipt along with the official credit card receipt (like from an in-store terminal).

My wallet holds about 15 cards and 2 bills. I'd guess the max is about 20.

My current one is a leather tri-fold I've had for about 10 years (Guess brand... it was a gift and it's been great). It's still in fine condition but I've decided I want something slimmer.... anyone recommend a good slim wallet? I tend to carry a lot of credit cards (never less than 6), AAA membership card, health insurance card, drivers license, 2-4 gift cards, no more than 10 $1 bills, and sometimes a few slips of paper in the wallet, so must have some storage capacity. I am willing to ditch some of that stuff if I can't fit it all and the wallet is good

Your thoughts?

How about this?

How much are you looking to spend. I can suggest a very good wallet but then again it would be very expensive. Its hard to suggest something without know what you want to spend.

I have this one,, expensive, but I love it Link

LOL ok not that much. Let's put the cap at $40. Could you really not find something similar to that for half the price?

After switching to a skinny (no open) wallet, I don't know how I survived with those bulky fat wallets before. I love my fossil but can't seem to find it anywhere online. It's similar to this (minus the money clip)

I feel like they have these at Marshals/TJ Max.

Entirely possible... Not sure what you are getting at? I can't vouch for the quality of each of these wallets (besides the fossil that I own, which is awesome) but the style is unsurpassed IME (unless of course you go extremely high-end, I'm sure there are some pretty great styles there too).

You can go look there to see if they have the same wallet, as you cannot find it online.
