Question for those using key cases

For those who use a key case, what do you do with the other items normally on a key ring (i.e. house keys, store tags etc)?

Most of the key cases do not appear to have a ring to attach such things.

So stressed looking at that last image. JUST TAKE PICTURES ON YOUR PHONE OF YOUR LIBRARY CARD, ETC. It's 2019!

haha, I knew what all those cards were, you obviously live relatively close to me.

on my x3 fob it's clutter free. I've gone electronic locks on my house and my work is card access. no keys will be attached to my BMW fob.

I use a Keysmart key organizer with my key fob in a carbon fiber case and both are attached to a carabiner.

I purchased my wire hoop from my local Wal-Mart store. Since you are from the UK, I would suggest Amazon and eBay.

I just have the fob in the monstrous case, house key, and small mailbox key. I could do without the house key, as I can get in via the garage or through the keypad (Schlage deadbolt) on the front door.

I have that upper keycase, I carry it around in a big leather bag. It's enormous, people look at me when I have it in my hand. It's stupid and ugly but keeps my rear door from opening spontaneously...
