I'm on the verge of needing to carry a second wallet just to hold all my non-credit cards.  The following companies and stores have forced their own little plastic customer cards upon me now:

AAA - I haven't needed emergency road service in years but Murphy's Law says the minute I leave this one behind... yeah.

Ford - Two cards!  One for service discounts, one that has the code to the number pad that unlocks the door on my car.

Hertz, Continental Airlines, Hilton Hotels - more stuff to remember to take when I travel.

Officemax, Staples, Best Buy, Sears - "rewards" programs to encourage you to  BUY MOAR STUFF NAO!

Giant Eagle, CVS - where "sale" prices are only valid if you have the card.

Costco - where you can't even walk in the door without the card.

And then there's the other cards that I need to carry, like my license, insurance cards, ATM card, etc.

On second thought, maybe I should just get a purse. :P
