That’s my problem with EDC. I love the idea of being prepared for any eventually, but all my realistic eventualities boil down to how I’m going to pay for something, or how sunny it’s going to be.
It took me way too long of concentrated thinking to figure out that EDC meant every day carry have associating the acronym with Electric Daisy Carnival for so long
If I leave my house, my edc flashlight is on me, and I literally have a use for it every day. I used it probably 4 different times today. It’s kind of astounding how many times you could use a lil extra light real quick, even if you could sort of not need the light. Like when I was checking under my car seat today. I could sort of see under there without a light, but since I had the light right there in my pocket, I used it, and it made it way easier.
Having paper currency as part of your EDC for when electronic payment goes down feels great until someone starts calling you unc for having a wallet. Trust me.
That wallet stays at home. 99% of the time all you need is drivers license and Apple pay. Though I can’t seem to not take my credit card and bank card.
You wouldn’t do well where I live. We do have card readers in almost all places now. But you ain’t getting far with apple pay. Very, very few stores have that feature activated.
You either pay cash or swipe. And cash is still much appreciated.

Heavy is the ass that carries the wallet. 😞
Why would I not have a wallet? I would never trust tap pay on my phone, I don’t even have full access to my email on it
You’re weird.
Anybody worth the trouble is at least a little weird.
The youth are against wallets now?? What am I going to do, shove every card I could conceivably one day need into my pockets like I’m deranged?

Sigh. You still don’t need a wallet to carry a whopping two cards.
Those don’t always work well all the time either. My cards can have problems about a third of the time. So I’m always carrying cash just in case.
It must be nice when you can assume it all works all the time every time.
Kids just put their cards on the NFC function on their phone.
I’m in the middle with a ridge wallet
