Salesperson: 'Sorry, we only have small change left'
Me: 'Oh right, (Oh my God) ehhhh that's fine (absolutely not fine at all).
I end up usually dumping all the small change in my bag, whereby I am left fishing it out later on. But (don't you just love the word but?) I want to play pretend. Lets pretend I am cool, calm and totally efficient and the prospect of getting loads of coins makes me happy...why? Because I have a coin purse. That's why! In fact, if I was this other person, I would ask for small coins, just to fill the coin purse.
In reality, I got a coin purse once for Christmas. I was delighted at first, but too soon it sat forlornly in the corner of my bag. I used and abused it by dumping all my heavy duty stuff (as in a bottle of water and my wallet full of coins, that should have been in the coin purse!) on top of it. Where is coin purse now? I have no idea!!
However, I still fancy the idea of having a coin purse, so I couldn't resist picking out a few of my favourites.

I am going to see twilight today...for the first time ever! I suppose the right thing to do, would have been to watch the other two, but whatever, it will be my fault not having a clue about what is going on. Fun times!

It is so cute and also so handy!
Those are so adorable! I don't have a coin purse but I wouldn't know what to do with it, haha :p I just put all my change in the change part of my wallet :)

I have a coin purse from Anthropologie but I haven't used it yet either. Like you, I'm awkward, too.
And I think you'll be okay watching Eclipse without watching the other two, you shouldn't be too lost.
coin purses are nice! I like that coach coin purse, the hello kitty one is cute too. haha we have this coin jar at home and I've been trying to get rid of all my change so sometimes I would give the cashier 10 pennies instead of a 10 cent coin
I hate it when cashier get inpatient when you try to pay them in coins. It's still money I want to say. Maybe if I had a cute little coin purse like the 1st LV and the 9th Coach, it will make the process easier.
my favorite coin purse is the 4th <3
I like coin purses too! I had one from Urban Outfitters for a while. I love #s 3, 4, and 5 that you have listed here! So adorable!

Oooooh now I need a coin purse!
I love your f21 find!

Cute picks! I have a coin purse but I don't really use it, I use my wallet which has that section for coins. I do however save my extra change in a huge empty liquor bottle. Last year I turned in $300.00 worth of coins! Adds up fast : )
I don't think I've ever had a coin purse. I feel like such a diva saying this but I hate carrying cash...I pay for everything by card and believe taxis should have a chip and pin machine for the likes of me.
I like my purses with lots of room for cards and pictures.
I once had a perfect purse (rip)..it was vintage leather with peacocks on it and it had all my photos and a few love letters tucked into it and I lost it..obviously.

Kisses
you know I don't have a coin purse--but now I want one!
Oooh i really want a coin purse!!! I usually just fling the coins into my wallet and they all fall out next time I take it out, not a good look!
i completely agree with you darling .
coin purses are so cute. but i cant have them anymore- theyre not that practical..
hope youre having a wonderful week darling
xx ediot
Hi Sarah! In my case I have got a big purse, for coins, ticket, cards...
Kisses and happy weekend!!
I'm a mess when it comes to coins...I don't have a coin purse so I just dumped them in my bag and when they become too heavy for me to carry them around, I then transfer them to my "piggy bank" box. I seriously need to get a coin purse though! xoxxoxoo
Coin purses are very pretty, I have a lovely one but haven't used it for ages, perhaps I should.
I don't have one :(
But I love Accessorize coin purse
Cute post - I have an old embarrassing Gucci coin purse ;-P, but I still use it when I'm going out.
Did you like the Eclipse movie - For me it was way too tacky and too much kissing, but I kind of loved the books

I don't but #7 is SO cute!!!
lol I do the same thing! Right now I have a really cool one, but I never can find it in my bag.
I used to have that Hello Kitty one! It was sooo cute but it got really dirty from my bag :(
I am in total agreement with you! Coin purses can be a disaster, and I hate just standing at the register for what seems like forever while I"m trying to dig for it in my purse. I just throw all my change in my bag, now. But I'm loving the coin purses you chose. Especially that first one; it's so darling.
And have fun at the movies :)

Just about every shop here has an EFTPOS machine so I don't carry cash at all. For non-NZers -an EFTPOS machine is a swipe card terminal that uses a debit or credit card. Really convenient
I'm not really cut out for coin purses either. I usually carry a huge purse that is stuffed to the brim, so a coin purse just gets lost in the shuffle. I much prefer a big foldover wallet with a zip compartment for change, it's so much easier for me to handle.
cute cute cute items here :)
Hi Sarah!
Pretty much is the same story with me haha, i throw the coins in my bag and then i fish them but i never use my coin purses, but i really love your choices.

Yes, it is the right thing to do to see Twilight. However, don't be surprised if you come back with an unhealthy obsession for pale boys or tan boys that happen to be ripped. :) Love the 3rd one!
I love coin purses. Currently I'm using one (Winnie The Pooh haha) but during the year (in the university) I need a big purse!
Let me know if you liked the film.

Thanks a lot ♥
