One time my boss asked this guy I worked with for a quarter for the vending machine. Sure, he says as he reached in his pocket, got the quarter and his zig-zag rolling papers fell to the ground in front of the boss. :shocked:

My guess is there are few people who would want to contact you anyway.

Typically:
6

keys
wallet
cell phone
quite often a piece of gum for later (would be whole pack, but those packs for the '5' gum break down after being in my pockets for awhile. so, single pieces for later. :))
chapstick
optifree eyedrops (religious about these last two.. i don't really use the chapstick, but since i'll use it at the slightest sign of chapped lips (a lot when the air is dry here in Ohio), I prevent the serious burned and cracked lips that I used to get as a kid. Happy with that. :D)

and in the winter, if I'm inside I'll have my beanie folded in my other back pocket (wallet is in one of the back pockets already, can't stand to have one in my front pockets).

I generally don't have anything in my pockets. I keep everything in my Laptop backpack.

Sometimes I have my wallet and keys in my pockets when I'm not carrying the backpack. Blackberry is in a holster.

I carry 2 items, technically. Wallet and keys.

The keys have a pocket knife, screw driver and chapstick attached.
