Hi! I'd like your suggestions and opinions about what's the best way to carry metrocards (the one I use is just like a credit card, so it's a relatively thick and rigid plastic card, not a flimsly paper one).

My problem is that I'd like to avoid carrying it in my wallet since I think it's not practical nor safe to take the wallet out in public in crowded places like in the underground entrance. At the same time I feel like I could lose it if I carry it in my pocket.

Thank you in advance :)

In the past, when in metropolitan areas that I wasn't terribly comfortable in, I'd wear a sweatband on my wrist under a loose long sleeved shirt with my ID and cash tucked inside. I'd deliberately leave my wallet home. There are also these days the I-pod armbands I see worn, which may have a place for cards or other items.

I have seen people carry theirs in a clear card case with a retention cord hooked to their belt.

Personally, I keep mine in my wallet and pull it out before I'm in a crowd.

Thank you for the suggestions, I think I'm going to look for something with a lanyard/necklace
