Antiwallet Freedom Venture by r0ck c4ndy

June 12th, 2006 7:08 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: For three days, carry all of the things you normally carry in a wallet or purse in a non-standard receptacle. This receptacle could be a paper bag, a burlap sack, a cup, a piece of soft food, your hand, etc. This task will not be accepted and scored if the receptacle is too standard! No pockets or prefabricated bags - nothing that can be construed as being engineered for carrying credit cards, cash, driver's license, and whatever else you have in your wallet. Extraordinary proofs will be scored accordingly - significant bonus points for baking your personal effects into a cake that you bring around and eat to access items when necessary.

I decided to go with the opposites theory: A wallet is small, convenient, and organizes your stuff for convienent access.

I used a bag so enormous I could almost get inside it!

I just dumped whatever was in my wallet in there and went digging around. Amazingly there were very few comments and only a few odd looks. A woman at the fabric store was into it, and after talking for a couple minutes I told her about sf0, she seemed totally into and wrote it down and everything! Later that night my family was very dissapointed when I didn't carded at the fondue restaurant because there was no reason to dive into my enormous wallet after my ID. My family is all into this, always asking if I'm working on a task. It's pretty rad.
All in all, I will be happy to return to the regular old convenient wallet. It was fun for a couple days, but today I kept leaving it places, or having to spend forever diggin around in there. Back to Wallet Freedom!

That's one of the biggest, craziest bags I've ever seen. What's it usually for?

We don't actually know! I bought four at a store that was going out of business. I keep knitting stufff in one. I have a couple sitting on my basement floor, hence the wallet. And we used one as wrapping paper for two sleeping bags that were a wedding present. They're so FUN that you want to use them, but completely impracticle in every way!
