Looking for a specific wallet I bought in Miami

I'm looking for a specific wallet that I bought in Little Haiti in Miami in 2008.

I remember that I bought in a botanica in Little Haiti. I remember my friend telling me they sold them at a lot of them botanicas around there. Each tri-fold wallet was made of some kind of plastic and was one base color with stripes of another color (Mine I believe was red with black stripes). There was a change purse, a left area for cards, a middle area for cards as well as plastic sleeves for more cards (though the plastic sleeves got ripped out pretty quickly). The wallet kept closed with a snap. I know I bought the wallet for $2. I'd love to find this wallet again as it was cheap, but cool looking and aged okay. Know anywhere I can find this wallet online or someone that lives in the Little Haiti neighborhood? Thank you.

I visit Little Haiti every Tuesday night. You tell me what shop to try and I'll visit. (closer to 55th st and ne 2nd ave is better.)

Response by poster: The problem is I don't remember what shop it was at all. I've heard that several of them sell the wallets, though I'm not positive at all.

So, give me some addresses. I'm not intimately familiar with the neighborhood and I don't have a car. For internet connection I have an iphone. But, I like an adventure. Find some botanicas and I'll go snoop around.

Great! All of those appear to be pretty close to where I'll be!
