Abstract

A combination key ring and card holder comprised of a padded stretchable protective pouch for credit cards or similar plastic cards to which a standard key ring is attached by a tab to one end. The pouch is adapted to hold one or more standard sized credit cards or similar cards which are inserted into the pouch through a slot which is shorter than the corresponding dimension of the card. The slot must be stretched to permit entry or removal of a card. Because the slot is shorter than the card, the card is firmly and protectively retained within the pouch.
