    Please don't hover. Put a toilet seat protector or some toilet paper down. I don't want to sit in your pee.

    My purse sitting in the top part of a cart is one thing I will not fret about. Having to be around a person that thinks it's something to freak over is what would bother me.

    ....my aim is good and I was always taught to check everything is "ship-shape" for the next user.

    Urine contains lots of ammonia, ammonia kills germs.

    I wish all the "hoverers" would do that.

    Can't worry about everything. How about the machines at the gym? I do try to wash my hands when I come home from whereever I've been, especially in winter when the flu germs are going around. Life was so much easier and more fun when we didn't worry so much.

    I read list of dirtiest/germiest place/things around us and ladies purses came up number one. Think about all the places you put your purse, floor of resturant, resturant bathroom (anywhere there), Best purses are leather or plastic that can be washed down. I wash my cloth ones in washer and they are lighter to carry around than leather/plastic.

    Dr. Oz checked some women's purses for germs one day and found that our lipsticks are the worst for germs.
    BTW, don't worry about germs on paper money. I worked for the government for over 20 years and found out that there is a disinfectant incorporated into the formula along with a nice perfume. So if you are still fearful of your cash...

    I teach middle school and if I thought about every germ, louse, or bed bug that enters my room, I'd be nuts! Just wash your hands when you get home and keep your purse on your arm
