Murse

[Norm In Norman]

Boy, I'm so 2005 this week. First I got a RAZR to upgrade my phone. I needed something to strap it to my side, so I decided to get a murse to put it in. You know - one of those cases with the magnetic flaps and a belt clip. That's what I call it anyway. So far I like the razr pretty good but I can't feel the phone in my murse when it vibrates and the murse keeps pressing the outside buttons on it. Can nobody make a good cellphone case?

[Pricetag]

I have a pretty good one. It's called a "pocket."

[OU4LIFE]

Norm only wears sweats, so no pockets.

[1stTimeCaller]

I thought you were talking about critical_phil.

Nevermind, carry on.

[rebmus]

murse? never heard it called that.

anywho, i bought a carrier that clips to my belt. i can feel the phone vibrate whenever getting a call/text.

try looking around at a mall. usually, booths are set up with faceplates, "murses", bluetooths, etc. if you're buying the carrier (or charger, any accessory) at a cell store (cingular, etc) you're paying a high price for low quality crap.

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

Norm's got a man purse.

I can't wait to tell Dean...

Dear God please don't let him tell us he's wearing a manbro too......:eek:

I bought the SLVR version and can feel the vibrate through the clip.

[OU4LIFE]

this thread excites me in ways that I don't quite understand.

[Norm In Norman]

I've got my leatherman and my keys in one pocket, my wallet and my pen in the other. I don't have room for a cell phone.

The murse is on my belt, but it dampens the vibrations quite a bit. I figure I might miss a few calls because of it. At least the RAZR has the vibrate then ring mode. Maybe I'll hear it.

For my old phone I had a holster. I could feel it vibrate just fine, but my phone would fall out of it onto the concrete quite often, usually when getting out of the car. I don't think that will be a problem with the murse.

They had one that had a leather case and a removable clip. The damn phone stuck out about 2 inches though.

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

'Murse' is now making me giggle.

That is similar to the other one I saw. It stuck out too far for me AND I didn't like having something covering the screen and the buttons.

For my next one I think I'll try the one i saw on the innerweb that was a skin but had a removeable clip on it. The skin takes away form the thinness of it though.

For those of you that are uninitiated, here is something similar to what I got:

I ordered my murse and car charger on Amazon and both combined it was less than $20. I hope you checked there first.

:D

[Norm In Norman]

Nope. I paid $20 at the mall for just the murse. At least I got to look at it first to see if I liked it.

Obviously that didn't help.

Well, it's not like I'm totally unhappy with it. I'm going to give it the old college try.

[Mjcpr]

Well, I ordered the leather cover.....it's not as fancy as yours so it was bound to be cheaper. It came with a belt clip as well and works okay.....I was just looking for something to protect the phone.

[Norm In Norman]

A similar case was $20 at that place too.

[homerSimpsonsBrain]

<Mr Rogers> I like my murse. It comes it pretty colors. Can you say murse? I knew you could. </Mr Rogers>

[Howzit]

Norm, if you wear your murse to the tailgate, be sure and take it off before you run through the Willy Water Bug. It might get roont.

[Norm In Norman]

water+murse=bad

Thanks for the tip.

also,,, am i and norm "murse buddies" now?

so many questions... i'm headed to the liquor store. i'm not feeling well.:(

You keep your wallet in your front pocket? :confused:

Yep. it's one of those money clip bifolds, sort of like this:

http://www.fossil.com/images/us/local/products/detail/ML5597200.jpg

I couldn't ever find a wallet thin enough for me, so I decided to go with a front pocket wallet. After breaking away from the pain in the *** that is putting my wallet in my back pocket, I will never go back. It's so much better. I may even end up going with a wallet that hold even less ****.

[Norm In Norman]

Ooo - I'm gonna get this next time (in about 10 years, when my other one wears out):

http://www.fossil.com/images/us/local/products/detail/ML6283200.jpg

I can't wait.

[Norm In Norman]

Actually, if I could merge this business card holder (with a place for a space pen) and the above wallet, I'd never buy another wallet.

I wouldn't know - I never tried to put it in my back pocket. I sort of assumed it would hurt though...

[Oldnslo]

I thought a murse was a Male nURSE. No?

oh, I keep my wallet in my front pocket when it's not in my briefcase.

Pe'n in the pants? uh, no.

[OUinFLA]

WalMart, your favorite store has severl for under $10, and you can try them out if you have a friend who you will give your cell number to.

Ive been keeping my wallet in my front pocket for years. Sitting on it in my hip pocket was begining to hurt. Course that was back when I had some money in it. Then I got married...........

Uh, yeah. Bullet Space Pen. It's small enough to fit in my pocket without poking me AND it always works AND it writes on anything.

[GottaHavePride]

http://www.fossil.com/images/us/local/products/detail/ML6283200.jpg

that's almost exactly what I carry, but from a different person. WAY better than sitting on some Gigantor (the space-age robot!) wallet.


Oh, and this thread makes me think of Hello Nurse.

this thread has become VERY seinfeildish.
george's wallet is too full and hurting to sit on.
a pen that writes on anything, anywhere, even upside down.

to top it off... i heard on the radio today the term "murse"... first time i've heard the term was today and the radio was the 2nd time i'd heard it. she called the "man purse", or "european carryall" a "murse"... short for "man purse". heh, that was one of my fave seinfield episodes... "IT'S EUROPEAN!"

[Beano's Fourth Chin]

Yes, Doc, Here's a murse:

I've started carrying one of these too. You inspired me.

You're on your own with the boy purse, though. I draw the line at fannypack.

[Beano's Fourth Chin]

And here's my wallet:

You guys SHOULD be using this one, I got it for my birthday.

[SicEmBaylor]

Heh, I had a Fendi wallet for a long time and the only person who ever recognized it as a Fendi wallet was this morbidly obese black woman who was working at a gas station that I filled up at one day.

Now, I just use a $30 black leather bifold.

I can equate almost anything to a seinfeld episode, so it's not too surprising.

I've got one like that, without the OU, and I love it. I'll never carry my wallet in my back pocket ever again.

Boys have wallets.

While reading this thread, I had to reach into my back pocket to see what kind of wallet I have because I honestly couldn't tell you without looking. Y'all are a buncha weirdos.

My wallet doesn't sit right under me - it's a little up and to the outside. Maybe your butt's too big. :texan:
