Stuff you carry everywhere?

[SilentCom]

So I just read about women carrying tuning forks and other wierd things with them in their purse in a different post and it got me thinking. What do my fellow escapists carry with them everywhere upon leaving home? This could be in your pockets, packs, bags, etc.

To make this interesting, list some common items you are likely to carry everywhere and some uncommon or wierd items (if applicable).

For me, I always carry my wallet, keys, and cellphone in my pockets when going out (unless I'm out for a very short while and they are not necessary).
I don't really have any uncommon items.

Thinking of getting one of those para-cord wrist bands

Right now I carry:

Pen
Keys
Wallet
Leatherman Wave
Cellphone
Cleaning cloth for my glasses

-Jacket/Vest:
Surefire 6PD(I will carry this in my pant pocket if it is too hot and am looking at getting a belt holster)
Bandanna
MP3 Player w/ headphones
Waterproof Matches(sometimes)
Snack bar(also sometimes, mostly if going for a hike or I know I'm going to get hungry and not have time to eat)
Rx shades(if sunny)

-Stuff I want to carry but can't because of the law or lack of money
Compact Pistol w/ proper permit of course(I've been told it is easier to become a cop than manage to get a permit in my state)
Pepper Spray or Taser
Small first aid kit: band aids, tweezers, disinfectant, tape, small bit of gauze
Spare mag for pistol and/or extra taser cartridge

Just my wallet, keys, cell phone, and on occasion my PSP or DS. That's about it.

 

[Bon_Clay]

Generally just keys(used to be actually just a single key until very recently when I added one for a new bike lock). Sometimes not even that if I won't be out late and I know other people will be home.

I really don't like carrying stuff, I leave my wallet in my room unless I plan ahead to use something in it, and I've never owned a cell phone. I don't wear watches or jewelry, its just regular clothes and house key if I need it and I'm free from worry about any possessions on me.

[Kiba The Wolf]

I carry a few things- this list can change depending on what pants I decide to where

- I usually wear a wrist-watch

- Cellphone

- Handkerchief (I sneeze a lot)

- Wallet

- Pen

- Small notebook (I like to write)

- Pocket knife or Multi-tool

- Keys

- Possibly my gloves that I use when I am doing some kind of labor

 

[Ladette]

My cell phone and wallet obviously.

Aside from those I always carry my shamrock lighter with me. I don't smoke, but it gives me something to figit with and it's my good luck charm.

 

[blankedboy]

Zune and phone. That's pretty much it.
I try to keep my pockets as free as possible. My hands have to go somewhere.

 

[CouchCommando]

Ok im a bit of a nut for man "toys" So in my cargo shorts and on my belt I carry an assortment of crap, that really doesn't come in as useful as often as I would like.

The small maglite in belt pouch

One of the larger gadget prone Victorinox swiss army knives also in belt pouch

A small moleskin note book with a disposable bic pen in one cargo short pocket

iPod with bud ear phones and a piece of elastic sleeve to secure it too my upper arm when in use (stowed in the opposite cargo pocket to the moleskin and pen to balance it out weight wise)

A good sized quicksilver leather wallet, containing pocket cards receipts money etc

Keys with a poker chip key ring (in the same pocket as wallet)

Ciggarette case and bic lighter in the opposite pocket again to distribute weight evenly

Optional- Kobo e-reader if I'm going to be waiting for any period of time. Stowed in the large mystery pocket (on the right hand side) found on most pairs of cargo shorts these days. Or if I'm cycling, hiking or going to the beach I have a pocket size first aid kit with various plasters in this pocket.

Edit- forgot my G-shock watch and dark sunnies.

I never carry my phone as I find it annoying and leave it in the car.

 

[Tharwen]

I have a watch on my left wrist, which I never remove (it's probably a horrific mess of bacteria under there but I still never take it off. I also keep my phone in my left pocket, and several keys on a ring, a memory stick and a smallish Swiss Army Knife in my right pocket.

Somehow, I feel like I'm weighted wrongly if I don't have them. I'm just so used to having them on me.

 

[Dark Sup3rn0va]

My Phone, keys, wallet(In it my Health Insurance card, my I.D. Card, my money and a load of pointless "loyalty cards". When I'm out drinking then I also have a 20 pack.

 

[Zhukov]

Keys, wallet, pocket knife, pen, watch.

I travel light.

Although if I'm carrying a bag, and I usually am, then it always contains a first aid kit, bolt cutters and duct tape.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Most of the time these are in my pocket-
Wallet
Mobile Phone
Tissue
Key
Ipod Nano

Also I sometime have a carrying bag with me when I heading to the city to hand with my mate. I have one to store any stuff I bought on that day.

 

[infohippie]

I carry my wallet, my keys, my Android phone (which therefore includes entertainment like ebooks, games, music and the net) and my little pouch with headphones, thumb drives, micro-usb cable and micro sd cards. I usually wear cargo pants so I seem to be carrying nothing and still have tonnes of pocket space left over.

 

[SckizoBoy]

Cleaning cloth for my glasses

Really? I can understand it if you have it in a specs case as well, but I don't think I've ever encountered someone who carries a cloth for that specific purpose. Granted, I clean my glasses almost religiously, twice a day.

OT:

Watch, phone, iPod, wallet, keys & Oyster (Londoners should know).
On the more odd side, I wear a buff regardless of weather, carry lab-specs wherever I go, a Chinese lucky charm in my wallet and a mini periodic table of elements.

 

[cream]

phone, keys, wallet, watch, rings.

Cleaning cloth for my glasses

Really? I can understand it if you have it in a specs case as well, but I don't think I've ever encountered someone who carries a cloth for that specific purpose. Granted, I clean my glasses almost religiously, twice a day.

It came in the case when I bought the glasses. And I keep it in that little pocket above and on the left of the normal sized pocket on most pants(I think it's a change pocket).

I used to just use my shirt, then when I got a new pair of glasses the shirt scratched them up something fierce. Turned out the lenses were defective, but I figured it would be easy enough to put the cloth in that pocket. Besides I don't really use it for anything else.

Is that really that odd?
