Oh I love this thread and I'm kind of scared to look in my bag. I try to clean it out regularly, but ha like that happens. I have to agree the bigger the bag the more stuff I carry so warning I have a lot. I carry a messenger bag with my purse in it:

Messenger bag contains the following:
- 2 unopened bottles of bubbles
- 1 almost empty bottle of caffiene pills (haven't used in ages, forgot they were in there)
- 1 tampon
- 3 sanitary napkins
- 1 ziploc baggie with random buttons in it
- 1 bag cough drops
- 4 small hair clippies
- 2 keychains I took off my keys
- 1 deck of playing cards
- 1 highlighter
- 1 spare change of underwear (I've had some bad leaks before at work)
- 1 small calculator (again don't use)
- 1 small pack of batteries for my MP3 player
- lots of ransom receipts and papers
- 5 old pay stubs ( I get paid weekly so these add up fast)
- 1 recipe from my mom
- 1 small bag of gaming dice
- my wedding ring in it's original container (I'm taking it to get resized)
- 2 library books
- 1 of my books
- 2 books for a class I start tomorrow ( I just added those friday so I wouldn't forget them)

- and my purse which contains the following:
- 1 pad
- 2 tampons
- 3 lip glosses
- 1 chapstick
- 1 mascara
- 1 lighter (used to smoke but quit, forgot that was in there)
- 1 compact with 3 lip glosses in it
- 1 face powder compact
- 1 box Midol
- 1 swiss army knife
- 1 old watch that doesn't work
- 1 small bottle of Moonlight Path body lotion
- my wallet
- my checkbook
- my keys
- my sunglasses
- 1 pen
- another keychain I took off my keys
- loose change
- packet of gum
- 1 large rubber band from work
- work ID badge
- random dice that should be in dice bag
- random papers with phone number I need
- MP3 player
- another pen
- 2 pairs of earrings (I love earrings and sometimes I'm in a huury in the mornings so these are spares)

Okay so now I'm going to clean out a lot of stuff. I don't use most if it. But I can say that most days at work I also cram my lunch, any snacks and sometimes other books into my bag. When I'm not going to work and I don't need any stuff from the big bag, hard to believe I ever need it, I just grab my purse out of it. But this had led me to forget it several places like church and my in-laws because I'm not used to carrying something so small.
