This is a cool and really magic system to store bills. Did you invent this system?
No, I didn't. The system is not (yet) very well known - especially in Europe most people haven't seen how the magic wallet works yet. It is more popular in the USA and Asia. I was introduced to the system by my cousin in the Philippines Christmas 2007. Since then I've seen it in outstanding quality at a Navyboot shop in Bern (made in Europe, leather, 70CHF) and in very poor quality at a market stall in London (made in Asia, plastc, £5). And online of course.

There is space for cards and bills. Is there a way to store coins?
That's what I was missing with most of the magic wallets I've seen as well. That's why I managed to create a bespoke wallet, that also comes with a handy compartment for coins. Personally, I am using no other wallet anymore and I'm very happy with it. Have a look here to see how it looks like. You can order your bespoke wallet that includes a coin storage here and be aware that there would be an additional cost.

Can I also get them in other materials than fruit juice carton?
Yes you can. Provided most of the wallet is made out of recycled material I am very open to new kinds of papers, fabrics and leathers. I am familiar with all those materials as I've been working at a fashion designer for over one year and also I took courses in bookbinding and leather processing. Have a look here to see what bespoke wallets I've made so far. Order your bespoke wallet here. Please understand that the price would increase depending on what material I would have to process.

Does the money in the wallet magically proliferate?
Unfortunately not. I wished it does... I would be rich by now :) But this is the real world. However, I hope the wallet makes you think twice about your spendings. Ask yourself if the things you buy could become waste very soon or not; if it's doing good or not; if it's worth buying or not.
I'd say:
Buy clever: less, but better design - WASTE NO MORE - neither resources nor money.
Anyway, that's what I wish the Recycled Magic Wallet will stand for. But you are the one deciding.

The wallet is not entirely closed. Does the money fall out easily?
It's a child's play to put the money in but it needs a bit of work to tear it out. When the wallet is closed, the bills are properly retained by the 4 elastic strips. With me, it never happend that money slipped out. However, if you want to go for sure (psychologically) then take a rubber or hair band and put it around your wallet. Testing this method myself, I find it's not a big deal to remove the band before paying. I'm sure you'll figure out your best way how to handle Recycled Magic Wallet!
