    They pull their wallet out of their pants becuase it's too big to sit on comfortably.
    Which must be why hubby wears his in his front pocket. Also makes it less likely to be lifted.
    Quoth Andara Bledin View Post
    I've had nice stuff in my car and managed to forget to lock it, and nobody ever tried to get in.
    You have been very, very lucky. I had my car broken into when there wasn't even anything out in the open (they rifled through my glovebox, which had been closed). As I said, though, I lived in an area with a very high vehicular crime rate.

    Still, even if you live in Mayberry USA, it's not a good idea to leave your wallet or purse in the car. It's just asking for problems.

      I do the same thing. This means you have to give me a reach around if you want to steal my wallet.

          Even Mayberry had a sheriff. And crime did happen there occasionally.

            It is a courtesy, after all.

              They make special curved wallets designed specifically for front pockets.

              A friend of mine got one because he has sciatica fairly badly and a hip wallet is agony for him.

                Same here. In fact, I don't think I have EVER routinely kept my wallet or anything more than a handkerchief in my back pockets. Never seen the need.

                      Speak for yourself. I have a phone in one back pocket and a wallet with the essentials (cash, ID, membership cards) in the other. They're actually very close to the same size.

                      Since I always wear shirts that fall lower than my pockets and never tuck them in, someone would have to lift my shirt to get to either one, and I'd feel that.

                        Also please stop arguing with me in Spanish after I have told you multiple times I do not speak Spanish.
                        This is a sucky customer tactic used by some morons who speak a foriegn language, they play the ruse of not being able to understand what is being said in order to get their way.

                        The best way to handle them is to start speaking in short rudimentary sentences like as if they are idiots or small children, just borderline to rude as you can get away with.

                        Phrases such as "I no speaky Italian!, You Speaky English?", "English Only!" and "You buy 3 for Coupon, pay $XXX" while tapping an open palm to collect money" to make it clear to them that you think they are idiots for not speaking english

                        My favourite was when my brother said to the chinese man who tried this trick (family business)

                        Man: Gibberish
                        Brother: "I buy you rwife for $5"
                        Man: "What?!? How dare you! Why..
                        Brother: Oh! So you do speak Engish!

                        um, I can't say that I would suggest you us that line
