sigh Misplaced my wallet earlier this week and I really needed it today.

Hopefully when I get home I'll be able to find it, highly unusual that it wasn't in my bag today as I thought I put it back in there earlier in the week.

Stressing about it.

doesn't help you right now but for when you find it again: sticking an airtag in mine has been one of the better decisions of my life!

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 6 months ago

I'll keep that in mind for next time!

it's in your bag, just in a different pocket in the bag

Checked my bag and emptied everything in it, not there sadly but I'll look again just incase.

It's in that other bag you used once that one time

Many years ago when I was living with my ex and his parents (I think I was 20), I came home from work in a foul mood and flung my wallet. Couldn't find it, had to cancel and get cards reissued, whole big kerfuffle.

A year or so later, I found it in the back of the closet 😑

What a pain that must have been for you to have all your cards reissued. Well hopefully I've just left it on the recliner or my desk at home and all will be good.

I remember having to go to the bank on Monday so that's why my wallet was taken out of my bag and I drove home with it in my pocket but blanks all round about what I did with it after I got home.

It's in your pants that are waiting to go into the washing machine dw

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 6 months ago

I can almost say for certainty that it isn't the case.

I realise this isn't exactly helpful, but I'm curious: What is in your wallet?
Mine has a credit card, public/private health cards (these cover the whole family), a drivers license and a Public Transport card. Literally nothing else. I never have cash.

The Credit card never actually gets used because my phone handles payments. I don't use the health cards all that often. I rarely need my drivers license. That leaves the smartrider. It's honestly the only thing I ever really need in my wallet. Once the phone can do public transport trips in Perth, I could honestly go weeks without my wallet.

My license, bank cards, racv membership,and cash that I urgently needed to return to a friend of mine at work this week.

I don't have enough money for my friend if I can't find my wallet.
