Does anyone else NOT own a hand bag?

I have been reading with horror and fascination the thread about handbag contents.
Please don't tell me I am the only one who leaves the house with my debit card in my back pocket, any loose change in one fromt pockets and my car/house keys in the other.
I have never owned nor wanted a hand bag.
Is this abnormal?
I do recall shoving nappies and stuff under the children's prams when they were little, and my car now probably has an old banana skin hairbrush in the glove box, but other than that I travel very light.

Despite having started that thread I don't use mine if I'm going to the local shops ... then it's purse in hand and mobile in pocket, keys in hand or in other pocket. Does that help?

I don't have one either(well i have one but never use it!).
Wallet goes in back pocket, phone in front pocket and keys in the other front pocket.

Hate trying to get things out of a bag and it is a pain to carry when i have bags of shopping.

I hate having to get things out of pockets even more, though... you pull out your gloves, out comes DD's glove and falls on the floor of the shop etc.

I suppose if I carried around a tiny roll-up shopping bag for odd small purchases/things to take to and from preschool etc. etc. it might work. And it probably makes a difference once your DCs have their own school bags. I don't have a car, so can't offload anything into that.
