Reduce the number of membership cards in your wallet with Just One Club Card

A while back I decided to ditch my traditional wallet for a slimmer, more efficient hack using a Moleskine notebook. The only things I carried over from my wallet were my driver license, my debit card, and a few business cards. I ended up leaving a number of membership/loyalty cards in my wallet (along with my credit, library and other cards) for the sake of simplicity and that the pocket in the back of a Moleskine notebook just isn’t that robust. :)

For the most part, I’ve been fine. But there have also been times when it would have been extremely useful to have, say, a grocery membership card that could have saved me 15 cents a gallon on gas.

Enter Just One Club Card. It’s a site that let’s you plug in the numbers under the barcodes of your club/membership/loyalty cards and will print out all the appropriate barcodes on a single page. The page is designed to be cut and folded into a card shape for E-Z access. And ta-da! All your membership cards are available to you on a single card.

Of course, not every club card in the world is available but there are some popular options including Smiths, Albertsons, ACE Hardware, Best Buy, Delta SkyMiles, and Office Depot as well as some lesser-known establishments such as Bob’s Stores. (I have never heard of Bob’s Stores. Would anyone care to enlighten me?) There’s even an option to add a store/business yourself if the one your looking for isn’t available.

The proprietor of the site says he won’t use your barcodes/information for any nefarious purposes, but use at your own risk. (Personally, I’m not all that worried about someone finding out what kind of groceries I buy.) It could be a great way to cut down on the clutter, and width, of your wallet.
