In addition to the usual, my already overstuffed wallet contains:
1. Telephone card;
2. Emergency notification list containing family, friends, neighbors' names, addresses, phone nos. It also includes such information as to hospitals, physicians, dentists, attornies, CPA, church & pastor, schools, insurance carriers with policy nos. & claims office phone nos. You never know what form an emergency may take;
3. Fresnel;
4. Assorted band aids (after all I have 2 active sons, not to mention miscellaneous Cub Scouts & Boy Scouts for whom I am occasionally responsible);
5. Auto Club card;
6. Health insurance card;
7. Birth dates, Social Security Nos., health insurance identification nos., & driver's license no. for each member of my immediate family;
8. Spare vehicle keys; and
9. Business cards (they make good note paper).
Incidentally, a goodly amount of cash can sometimes work wonders.
