Well I just opened my bag right now to see. I've got my wallet, keys, a spare phone charger, a mask, a pair of sunglasses in a case, a pen, a small notebook, a Swiss army knife, a Rubik's Cube, a roll of Lifesavers candies, a pack of cigarettes, a lighter, a pair of headphones, a set of brass knuckles, a Hot Wheels toy car, a box of Altoids mints, and a canteen full of water.
I don't usually carry a bag, because when I do, I end up carting around half my worldly goods. I carry a small clutch/wallet.

No bag/purse. I've never felt a need for one. Too often I hear women, including my daughters, saying they lost or forgot it somewhere. The bag I take to work is just for work... bottles of water, bottles of sweet tea, fruit, a bag of ugly masks that never see the light of day and that's about it.
For daily things, I only take a cell phone for emergencies, a wallet and keys.
There is a legend about an American voice teacher who used to keep a severed head in a jar on her piano. If any of her students objected, she retorted that they were unfit for the operatic stage, as they would encounter much worse sights there. 😳
@SW-User Good grief. Hopefully, they do not use real severed heads in any type of theatrical production. Unless that is how the bad artists ended up!

@CastorTroy No, I don't think the critics have actually beheaded anyone yet. As I remember, the point of this teacher's lectures was that you aren't ready for the stage if you can't face scary or disgusting things. The severed heads (scary disgusting things) are mostly in the audience. 😳
Depends where I'm going. If it's somewhere important, I keep my compact powder, lipstick, perfume, phone, tissues and money. But if it's somewhere unimportant or casual, I just keep my phone and some money.
Wallet, work keys, car keys, hairbrush, mascara and lipstick, hair ties, checkbook, knife, hand lotion, meds, sanitizer, qtips, tweezers, mints, and gum.
Purse, keys, phone, mask, hand sanitizer, hair brush, mirror, pain killers, tampons and chewing gum…then any other crap I accumulate whilst out and about
