Decluttering Task #19

Store Loyalty Cards

A lot retailers have their own loyalty programs, but unfortunately, this often means another card I need to store in my purse – or perhaps not? This week’s declutter task will step you through how to keep your wallet light, clutter-free, and organised, whilst still allowing you to benefit from those fabulous reward points.

TODAY’S TASK: PURGE AS MANY LOYALTY CARDS AS YOU CAN

Note: My definition of purge – sell, donate, repurpose or throw away items as you see fit

  • Remove all the contents from your wallet, grouping like items together.
  • Download a loyalty cards app to your phone – I use Stocard app which has 100’s of retailers all relevant to Australia (available on Google Play and in the App Store).
  • Search for each retailer from your loyalty cards, and simply scan the barcode from your rewards card into the app. This app can then be used at the checkout to collect your points.
  • Store cards together in a drawer in your office. 
  • Before placing your other contents back into your wallet, look at each one and consider if you need it on hand or if couldn’t be stored elsewhere instead (e.g. receipts).
  • Keep vouchers that can’t be uploaded to your phone in a labelled section of your wallet – this may help you remember to use them and avoid them getting lost amongst your wallet contents.
  • Place cards you don’t use often towards the back.
