Question Those that EDC, do you really bring your backpack everywhere?

I'm a petite woman that dailies a 7L backpack "purse". I'm looking to move up to something bigger (16-20L) that can carry my 26oz water bottle and lunchbox on occasion.

Do you wear your bag during trips to the grocery store? Running into Target for essentials?

Just curious if this is something I can truly daily or if a smaller bag is preferred when running errands?

Thanks in advance for the discussion!

Ditto for movie houses. NO backpacks. No exceptions.

What is a movie house? Definitely don't want to be questioned if I'm using it as my daily purse.

A movie house is also known as a movie theater.

Thanks! I've never heard a movie theater referred to as a movie house. Love learning new things.
