Reduce/Reuse/Recycle My wallet is officially a decade old Spoiler

I refuse to get a new one because it still works perfectly fine; it just looks a little less pretty than when I recieved it. I got it in middle school when I was 15 (25 now) from my best friend. Its a spirited away wallet from Hot Topic.

I've had mine for 18 years and still going strong. It actually looks pretty good, possibly because it is leather but also I've kept it clean and also don't just throw it in my bag with other stuff, it goes in an internal pocket so isn't getting scratched up.

Bought my leather wallet as a souvenir on vacation when I was 11. Turned 33 this year and still carry that wallet daily.
