I called DH right after I bought it to warn him that I'd made a really expensive purchase - he was a little nervous, thinking it was like, $500, so he ultimately considered the $100 price tag "no so bad."</p> <p>Oh, forgot to mention that Hobo is ocassionally on Rue La La, so if you wait a little while, you can get a deal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275575 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 23:40:05 +0000 Mrs squirreld 275575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>p.s. don't tell DH....lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275574 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 23:39:41 +0000 Mrs squirreld 275574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally just bought a Hobo Lauren Wallet!!! eeek so excited!! I have been looking for a new larger wallet for AGES and haven't found anything I like...so looked up this one after reading this thread and IT'S PERFECT!!! Can't wait for it to arrive!!<br /> Thanks Ladies!! </p> [attach=2518/12/m9jwy6.600x600.-T2eC16RHJHYE9nzpdUZdBQO49JD8Ww--60_3.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275414 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 20:07:33 +0000 aMohror 275414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Fossil! I have only had one wallet because it has lasted me so long! I have had it for about 5 or 6 years and it still looks relatively new! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275091 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 16:13:02 +0000 MrsBrewer 275091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I looove my Coach wallet. I have like the biggest one that they make and it's perfect. A lot of times if I'm just running to the store I will ditch my purse, and just carry the wallet. It's huge and fits everything I need. Plus its super durable. Ive been using it for over a year, and it still looks brand new! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275078 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:58:50 +0000 tororojo 275078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Tricycle: Oooh, I love the pattern on that! I have a hot pink patent leather one that I'm just about to switch my stuff back to...I have been thinking about it, and after this thread today, I must take action! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275071 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:54:26 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 275071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have to agree with the Hobo wallets - I've owned two -- the first I got at TJ Maxx, and the second I paid full price for (I loved the color and wanted this SPECIFIC one) -- I think it's one of about 10 things that I've not bought on sale. I love all the pockets on this clutch -- I can stick it in my purse or just carry it as a clutch. LOVE IT. </p> [attach=2158/12/m9jber.480x360.Hobo-International-Lauren-Clutch.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275052 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:46:38 +0000 Turd Ferguson 275052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oooh, I love my Coach wallet--looks fabulous and holds everything...and it's held up pretty good too! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275044 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:42:58 +0000 oliviaoblivia 275044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a hobo wallet but haven't been impressed with how it's held up. The leather is fused with a plastic-y material that chipped off when it was 6mos. old. It's really cute though, and I get compliments on it all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275035 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:38:55 +0000 Mrsbells 275035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone I was really tempted to get a hobo wallet but I ended up buying this guess wallet for $30. </p> [attach=1326/12/m9jaow.600x569.71-0-eQlFKL__SL1500_.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-275026 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:27:24 +0000 pelikila 275026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Surprisingly, Fossil has been able to stand up to both my husband and me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274946 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 14:20:05 +0000 tororojo 274946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: I guess there are advantages to each, whether you stick to credit or cash/debit. Free flights does sound like a really nice perk! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274889 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 14:01:47 +0000 Mrs. Pen 274889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: Yeah it's nice. We haven't been as consistent in following the cash part of it, but we still follow our budget. It's kind of a lot of work to take out cash every paycheck and divy it up. We're still pretty accountable with our debit too.</p> <p>DH and I have been talking about whether we want to switch to using credit on everything and paying it each month because we have the southwest CC and it earns flights for us. We've already earned three free flights, which is amazing. We go to NY every year and if we could earn more flights, we'd go more often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274879 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:58:33 +0000 tororojo 274879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: That does sound smart! You must be very disciplined. We paid off our debt using the snowball and mainly use our debit card now, but I hate carrying cash and I love earning credit card points for big purchases! So I am like halfway down with Dave. I had no idea that such a wallet existed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274871 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:55:45 +0000 Mrs. Pen 274871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: bahahaha I wish!! lol<br /> no it's actually pretty cool - it has little folders that you label. So I have groceries, gas, restaurants, clothing, entertainment etc. We put an allotted amount of cash in each, once it's gone, it's gone. It has a place to keep track of the amount you put it and then you write down whenever you take it out. </p> <p>It has a slot on the back for license and DEBIT cards (lol he said no credit cards allowed there!), as well as a slot on the front for the checkbook, as well as a coin pouch and a notepad and pen. It's big, but I like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274865 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:53:09 +0000 JerricaBenton 274865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been using this michael kors wallet and I really like it!

I am normally a label whore for Michael Kors handbags and wallets, but I just bought leather wallet from Coach and I lurrrrve it!!! It's the best wallet I've ever had organization-wise, and the leather is soft but durable:). The Coach outlet almost always has an additional 30% off on the weekends and their already-low prices are awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274722 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:08:49 +0000 mrs. wagon 274722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love coach wallets. You can get them super cheap at the outlet or on the factory store site... they constantly have clearance sales. Sign up for their emails.</p> <p>I went through 2-3 large coach wallets recently (I get sick of them and have to switch it up every now and then!) and right now I've got a black patent leather Tory Burch I got at that outlet right before the baby was born. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274715 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:03:32 +0000 Mrsbells 274715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone.

I have a couple in different colors that I use at clutches. I was thinking the other day I should use as a wallet though.</p> <p>I have a Coach wallet, fabric, that some friends bought me like 6 years ago. It has held up amazing. Would never know that it is that old. I used to buy nine west or whatever I would find at Marshall's or something but I would have to buy a new one every year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274634 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 12:29:29 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 274634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i also love my hobo wallet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-brand-for-wallets#post-274630 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 12:27:17 +0000 tororojo 274630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the same hobo one as @coacheswife123 and it's great! You can use it as a clutch with your phone/lip gloss inside when you don't want to carry a purse, but it's small enough that it works great as a wallet, too. I also have a Lodis brand one that's smaller but has lasted for years and still looks brand new. I got both of those at Nordstrom, and if you wait long enough you can find them on sale when they mark down handbags. </p>
