Experts Warn Pennsylvanians NOT to Carry These 8 Items in Their Wallet
We've all experienced this feeling on at least one occasion: The heart-sinking feeling you get when you realize... you've lost your wallet. Or, the contents in your wallet.

True, most of our vital materials and sensitive information are kept on our handy dandy cellphones. Today, we're able to pay by tap and automatically disable our credit cards from our phones, so losing your wallet may not be as much of a crisis as it was before smartphones. But it's still panic-inducing.
Sure, there are things that you should always have handy in your wallet - like your driver's license or ID in the event you get pulled over by a police officer. You should always carry a form of identification.
But there are some things you simply shouldn't carry in your wallet at all times.
