Hasanyone ever had the experience of going somewhere that necessitated removing their coat or changing their clothes, only to come back and think to yourself MY WALLETS GONE.

If so, what did you do about it and did you get the wallet back?

No, however, I did lose my wallet in a taxicab in Toronto last summer and I got it back in the mail a few weeks later.

Found a wallet once...had about 40 bucks in it and 3 or 4 fake id's, each with a different name. I split the money with 2 friends.

Found a pair of glasses once. They helped me see better coz I need glasses but been to lazy to get them. When I went back to college to finish an electronics certificate, I used to wear them in class so I could see properly.

Found 10 bucks floting in the water when I was swimming about 1 kilometre from the shore.....my friends still tell people that story.

I once couldn't find my wallet at home. I knew I had seen it that morning, and I was running late for work, so I frantically looked under the bed and in every pocket of every piece of clothing I owned. Five minutes later, I realized the reason I couldn't find it is because it was in my back pocket of the pants I was wearing.

Also did the same thing with my keys one day, but I couldn't find them because they were in my hand.

It is a great story, but it would have been even better if you slipped the word 'very' in there somewhere.

You mean like "I was running very late for work"?

I'm guessing: "the very pants [you were] wearing."
