    A baby tooth.
    It's mine, just in case anybody thinks I go around stealing them.

    I have a 20yr old gym membership card. I keep it just to look at the photo and laugh.

    A loyalty card for Game, from back when they existed.

    Can't bring myself to throw it away.

    An IRFU membership card. I played for one season back at U16s and the card arrived at my parents' house when I was 22. At that stage, I didn't look anything like the photo.

    It was only extracted last year( I'm in my 40s) and I thought I've had it this long, I may as well hang onto it.
    It lives in a little pocket in the back of my wallet. No rent. Centrally heated. Utilities paid. It has an easier life than I do

    I've got a load of old train/tram/bus tickets in mine, I should chuck them out, but then my wallet would just look empty.

    I had a load of Czech koruna coins in my wallet but I cleared them out the other day. I found a card for a camping shop in Dublin, I have no idea why I have it, I've never been camping in my life. I also found a card for a hairdressers that I went to in Dublin but I haven't gone there since my wedding day in July 2014. I also found a receipt for getting my wedding dress altered and a library pass card to UCD from 2013.

    I still have my UCD student card even though I graduated in 2014 but I use that for discounts :P

    There is nothing useless in my wallet.
    I am male.

    Too many trolley coin token yokes.

    A few 68c stamps (they cost 70c now!)

    A random USB yoke-ma-bob, never know when you might need one. (I never do, though.)

    Organ donor card. I plan on living forever, so hopefully that's useless!

    My Mother In Law bought me a purse about 20 years ago and put a sprig of heather in it for luck. It's only a twig now, but it's still in the purse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 585 ✭✭✭Crumpets


    Train tickets from up to 5 years ago

    This is probably the most useless thing in my wallet but has quite the back story.

    I have a ticket signed by Steven Seagal from a gig he played with his blues band Thunderbox in Edinburgh in 2007.
