Allett EcoThin Original Wallet (Hold Cash and up to 24 Credit Cards)

Updated – 2/14/2015 at 5PM PST: Added more versions of the Allett (leather, velcro, and women’s versions) to the bottom of the post.

Good evening everyone, let me tell you about a cool wallet that I learned about at my recent OC Meetup.  As we discussed gift cards and credit cards, an attendee pulled out his wallet and started looking for a specific card.  Then another attendee pulled out his wallet and noticed that they had the same wallet.  They both had the Allett, a super thin wallet capable of holding cash and up to 24 credit cards.  I decided to buy an Allett and test it out myself (Amazon).

Test Drive Kia ($25 Visa Gift Card) and Nissan ($25 Amazon/Target Gift Card)

(A big Hat Tip to Will @ Doctor of Credit)

Good afternoon everyone, I have 2 very cool test drive promos to share.  The first promo involves test driving any Kia vehicle and earning a $25 Visa Gift Card.  The second promo involves test driving and Nissan vehicle and earning a $25 Amazon, Target, or Visa Gift Card.  You can sign up for both promos if you want.  This offer is not as lucrative as the Cadillac offer from a few months ago (My 2014 Cadillac CTS Test Drive for 7,500 American Airlines Miles was Awesome), but 2 $25 gift cards for a few minutes of work/driving is good in my book.
