What’s in Your Everyday Carry Bag Right Now?

[CeruleanScribe]

Curious what others are carrying on a daily basis these days. I keep a small multitool, mini first aid kit, paracord, lighter, and a whistle in my EDC bag, plus an old library card (makes a good shim). Considering swapping out the flashlight for a rechargeable one—any recommendations? Has anyone found something surprisingly useful to add that isn’t the standard knife/fire/cord setup? Always looking to refine the load without making it a brick to lug around.

Always carry a tiny Baofeng radio—saved my bacon when cell service died once. Rechargeable Olight is my pick; ever tried carrying a pack of spare AA batteries just in case?

Been surprised how handy a foldable shopping bag and a small sewing kit are—mended a friend’s jacket in a pinch and saved a ton of plastic bags. I always have extra hair ties too, which work for more than just hair! Anyone else carry water purification tabs? They don’t weigh much but give peace of mind.
