I always keep my wallet in the back pocket with my father always shouting at me to keep it in the front pockets to make it tougher for pick-pockets. But, I get the uncomfortable feeling if it's in my front pant pockets. How do you handle your wallets. Front pockets, back pockets or are you the walletless types. Some keep loose cash in the shirt pockets too. So, what kind are you?

Hey, I didn't get you. What do you mean by 'bring pockets'. Yes, bulging spots in your trousers are very attractive to pick-pocketers, not quite literally though

as woman do, we keep it on our bags- shoulder bags...but sometimes since our wallets are different from men, i mean our wallets are more bulky...LOL..due to stuffs inside the wallet and not money..LOL...i tend not to bring sometimes, especially when i know i'll be going to crowd places, i just put my money inside my front pocket jeans...

Yup, front pockets are safer and reliable as far as cash is concerned. Just out of curiosity, what can a wallet hold other than cash and cards

I know, people have a habit of keeping their loved one's photos in their wallets. I am on the lookout of one though...

I generally keep mine in my fanny pack or purse. I heard that you should never keep cash in your wallet and that it should be in your front pocket. But, I rarely carry cash and my wallet has all my cards. I don't like carrying my cards around separately as I am afraid I'm going to lose them or not put them back in the right place.

Yes, you're right. I think cards are more risky than cash as a thief can easily use it somewhere and dispose it off before we realise that we have been robbed. We need to be vigilant at all times against these petty thieves.

I keep my wallet in my back pocket, I do not feel comfortable when it is in the front pocket. When I am in a crowded place then I will put it in the front pocket until I am away from the crowd.

Yes only temporary, I could never keep it in my front pocket all the time, it makes me feel like I have a brick in my pocket.

Back pockets are the best 
. If I keep them in the front pockets then, I get very uncomfortable while sitting down especially with tight pants on. Your idea is nice to put it in the front pocket for some time, I guess, being uncomfortable for some time is better than losing your wallet.

hi rajeshfgh,
i keep it in the back right pocket, as it is the quite safe and easy to pick. when i wear clothes for exercising, i will keep my wallet in my bag. well i also keep some cash not in my wallet but in the front pocket of my trousers.

Hey, that's a good thing. It surely is the easiest place but surely not the safest as I know some people who have been pick-pocketed from the back right pocket.

The wallet is always in the right rear back pocket of my trousers. Although there is very little cash that i carry in it. Most of the cash is always in my front pockets. It's probably because i find it a little painful to pull out my wallet every now and then.

The same with me. I too have very little cash with me whenever I am outside , but the cards and other important stuff is what I am concerned about. Robbers may use the cards somewhere and also your I-cards and other stuff needs to be remade, it's quite a pain.

Yeah, the comfort is surely there but it comes at a price, sometimes, which is the case with your friend. It kinda becomes easy target for pick-pocketers.

I usually put my wallet in my bag but ever since I was held up, I basically stopped using one(even if I have several at home.) I just don't want to lose my id's anymore and cash. What I do now is I just stick my money in the front pocket of my pants. That way, if anything untoward happens again, I wouldn't have to go through the hassle of filing for lost stuff.

You were held up, that must be one hell of an experience. I am sorry for that. Yeah, the id's and cards hurt more than the cash 
. You can always stuff cash in your front pockets but it's kinda a systematic way to put it in your wallet. But, there's pros and cons to everything. In the end, I think it's all about one's own comfort.

since I am a woman and usually not wearing clothes with pockets, I put my wallet in my shoulder bag or hand bag. I always have a small handbag or shoulder bag with me when I am out. I don't usually put my wallet in the pocket. My hubby usually put his wallet in the back pocket. I think it is safer in front pockets.

Yeah, front pockets are surely safer but at the same time very uncomfortable especially when you sit down. It's a big bulge and also if you're wearing something tight then you won't be able to sit down at all. Back pockets are comfortable but risky at the same time. You've got to take your pick. In this matter, I think, gals are luckier as they have a bag with them at all times.

I think we ladies would prefer wallet/purse in our bag.For men...i'd speak for my husband.He places his wallet on his back pocket.He doesn't have any worries because he wears fitting jeans.He can easily feel his wallet being taken out-i don it sometimes jokingly.He has also loose cash on his front pockets.At times if he has to bring big amount he usually put it on his front pocket.

Yeah, it's a lot easier for ladies . As for men, it's risky because when in a crowd or you're busing taking on cellphone you don't tend to think much about your wallet. Yeah, wearing tight jeans makes slipping it out that much harder for thieves.

I am not used of having wallet. I only have a coin purse where I put my exact money when going out and I put it inside my bag.

Yeah, it's common for girls to have wallets/purses to put it in the bags. For the guys, though, wallets are common as they don't normally have any bags with them. So, it's kinda where to put the wallet and the rear pocket seems to be the most comfortable place and at the same time risky too.

It's very uncomfortable for me with the wallet in my front pocket. It seems as if somebody has put a stone in my pocket. I agree with you on the easy-target thing but it's very uncomfortable for me atleast.
