I have TONS of stuff in my purse. When you read my items, keep in mind that I'm in school. Lol. I'm just gonna try to name most of the things...

School items: pens, pencils, highlighters, markers, sticky notes, a daily planner, whiteout, reinforcements, calculator

Other: my glasses, pads, tampons, pantyliners, hand sanitizer, hand lotion, cell phone, iPod, camera, a bracelet or two, a little bouncy ball (LOL!), Tide To Go, gum, and random papers

I think that's about it. Good question :)

Well...it depends on which purse you want.  All my necessity purse that I can't carry while using my crutch has everything.  But I think I have most of you beat...I have double all the imp[ortant things like medical cards, AAAcard, mechanoc card, calendar for appts , doctor cards, pen, comb, chapstick, 1 set of medications for 1 day, prn meds , cell phone gets transferred as i need it.  All of that goes in my little purse I can carry when using crutch.  The regular purse has all of that plus

daily planner
several pens
a small Bible
a marker
stickums to mark pages
snacks
sewing kit
money (that I take out as needed and put in sm bag)
credit cards
small notebook
colaspable water container

HI!  Sorry...I am late, late, late!!!  Lugging my bag took time.  For years I have put up with all sorts of jokes & flack for what I put in my bags.  Now I have a bag in a bag which to me makes sense.  I have a purse I liked with all sorts of cute pockets and zipper compartments, butttttttt.....it was splitting out & becoming an eyesore, so I went to Walmart & found a bag similar to a book bag that I could stuff the purse with its contents into and also fit more in around it and in the pockets that the handbag has :-)))

So, all but the kitchen sink goes in...women & purses/handbags go together.  We would stick the children in if they fit :-)))

The usual things:  wallet/$/cards, change, coupons, business cards, car wash cards, jewelry reward card..... (the wallet bulges too)
tape measure (never know when it will be needed), nail files, dental flossers (same thing..never know when you will be stranded), flashlight (miniature), triplicates of keys (some need weeding out as they are old ones), notebooks, more coupons, checkbook, receipts (in case I return something), LOTS of pens (dozen or so), washcloth (in case I need to wipe windshield), hand-sanitizer, lotion, gum, suck on candy, baggie with acetimenophen tablets for headaches, anti-diarreal pills (never know when you might start having the runs in inconvenient places), books I am reading, sudoku puzzles, hand lotion, kleenexes, coffee beans (the kind you can eat & are like getting a cup of coffee if you eat the required amt.), snacks in case I get hungry and can't stop somewhere, maps, .......

I know I didn't list it all as I add things to and take things away as the bag gets heavvvvy!!!  I also put cd's to carry to the car or take from to swap, stones to carry that make me feel good, but not always.

:-))))
