Lost my wallet today at a grocery store full of church dressed people. Locked the cards,then saw two usage attempts on two different cards. Of course, maybe it wasn't one of the people who had just came from church...
I mean you don't know. While you're getting all new stuff....try a phone wallet app. I only have 1 physical CC in my wallet plus some cash if needed. The tap to pay uses a dummy CC#, it's very secure, so even if stores get hacked your info is safe. A lot of people don't know this...phone wallet app is very very safe.
I have 1 physical CC but have access to all 5 CCs via phone wallet app for tap to pay.
Also recommend a small front pocket wallet. Easier on the back, it's less prone to slipping out/getting stolen, and if you're looking for a brand-specific recommendation I like Trayvax with its 65-yr heirloom warranty. It's a wallet for life. ๐
Good on you locking the cards via their apps. ๐๐๐
Actually how I paid for groceries. I've also already replaced the card via app and it was instantly available for my wallet app too. Gonna try using that more and see how comfortable I am with bringing less or no ccs with me. A few stores I hit still can't tap, but they are much less now.
As for the front wallet, kinda actually the issue. I haven't put my wallet in back pocket for years. Most of my pants have a zippable side/leg pocket that I put the wallet in, but today I wore different pants so used front pocket, but using a belt clip on the pocket lip(the main wallet on the inside). I thought I'd feel if it came out but I was wrong.
I still will go for something small,and likely never use the clip part. I'll check out the brand you mentioned.
