wallets
- 1Plural of wallet.
Rising rents are squeezing the wallets of young families across the city.
Many shoppers at the farmers market now pay with digital wallets on their phones.
Note
In the plural the informal money sense comes alive: a tax that hits voters' wallets stands for many people's finances at once, and verbs like hit and squeeze go with it naturally. The word now covers digital wallets on a phone as well. Archaic writing uses wallets for any bags or pouches, so an old traveler's wallet need not hold money at all.
