Here Are 7 Ways to Clean Up Your Overstuffed Wallet Once and For All :
這裏有給錢包減負的七種方法：
1. Carry Less Cash - I am always surprised when I see someone carrying a large amount of cash in their wallets. In this age, there really is no reason to do that. I would estimate that 95% of my purchases are electronic.
1. 少帶現金。當我看到別人隨身攜帶大量現金在包裏的時候，總是覺得很驚奇。在這個年代沒必要那麼做。估計在95%的情況下我都使用電子現金。
2. Carry Fewer Credit Cards – The same principle can be applied to the cards in your wallet. There just isn't reason to carry a bunch. I limit myself to 2 credit cards.
2. 少帶信用卡。理由同上。沒理由帶上一大堆的信用卡，我只用2張信用卡。
3. Toss Those Receipts - Receipts clog up many people's wallets. Instead of crunching them in you wallet, record them immediately. With apps like Evernote, Scanner Pro, and more, you can quickly capture electronic versions of your receipts. Then simply discard the paper scraps.
3. 把收據扔掉。很多人的錢包裏都塞滿了收據。做好記錄以後就趕緊扔掉。使用一些應用程序來快速的將這些收據作好記錄，比如：印象筆記、文件掃描專業版等，然後就把這些收據銷燬。
4. Don't file Things In Your Wallet – Just as with the receipts, don't file other papers or documents in your wallet or purse. Again, scan or take a picture of them with your phone.
4. 錢包裏不要放文件。就像收據一樣，不要把文件或其他的紙質東西塞到你的錢包裏。可以用手機將其掃描下來或者拍下來。
5. Ditch Those Membership Cards – You don't need to carry all those miscellaneous membership cards anymore. Even business cards are passé in most situations. From insurance cards to local club memberships, take a picture of the card and store it in Dropboxor Evernote.
5. 把那些會員卡丟掉。你不再需要帶着這些繁雜的會員卡。名片在大多數時候都不起作用。從保險卡到當地俱樂部的會員卡，都把它拍下來存到網路隨身碟裏或者是印象筆記裏。
6. Carry a Thinner Wallet – It's hard to put things in your wallet (or purse) if they don't fit. Minimize what you carry by getting a smaller wallet. There are lots of great slim wallets that limit you to only a few items.
6. 帶一個小巧的錢包。這樣，如果東西裝不下，你就很難把那些東西放進錢包裏了。買小一點的錢包也能減少你所帶的東西。很多小巧的錢包都能讓你只攜帶很少的東西。
7. There's an App for That – Chances are there is an app to replace many of the items in your wallet. Starbucks has a great app for your loyalty account with them. Apple's Passbook is coming very soon and promises to replace even more of the cards you carry.
7. 有些應用可以取代錢包的作用。有些應用程序就是用來取代你裝在錢包裏的某些東西的。星巴克就爲您設計了一個不錯的應用程序。由蘋果公司研發的一種即將運行的應用，就承諾可以使你少攜帶一些卡。
