Do you need a fake wallet?

Maybe a fake wallet could save your trip:

Your grocery store club card: Don’t leave home without it.

That’s my advice as a frequent visitor to places far off the beaten path. My Safeway card, along with a couple of other innocuous buyers’ club cards, helped save the day on my last trip to sub-Saharan Africa. These, plus a fistful of four- and five-figure bills of nearly valueless currencies from places like Vietnam and Ghana. This stuff pads out the “throwaway wallet” I use to create a diversionary hip pocket bulge when I travel in dodgy areas. -  OttawaCitizen.com
