Sometimes you don't feel like holding a bag and dragging it around when you go clubbing, or just going out to the store or supermarket. Though slightly bulky when full, if you just need your I'd or credit card and even a few dollars, it makes or a great item. You don't have to worry about putting these items in your pocket, with a great chance of losing them, and it keeps you from getting pick pocketed. I bought one for both my sister in law and I.
