Walletable Objects

An Istanbul travel card using a (rather sizeable) RFID tag, making it far from walletable.

From a fun 'empty out your wallets on the table' session with students. What stood out? The number of cards that include photo IDs. The lack of paper coffee-shop 'reward cards'. And the relatively sophisticated payment options - credit card culture is here with gusto.
