| Pick Pocket.
Damn it, more or less just a rant.
But first time in my LIFE have i ever been pick pocketed, didn't even think vancouver would have such thing, but until i went to pay for an item, did i find out i didn't have my wallet, now THAT was a bitch.

Ive seen it happen and experienced it a few times before.
Malls, especially dollars like that one near the busstop at metro. When it gets really busy in there. And also the skytrain.

Sorry to hear you're shitty story. Hopefully they didn't use you're cards and you cancelled them in time. But just a heads up for us, where did it happen?

sorry to hear. it's actually very easy to take it if you follow the person for a while and see which pocket the item (wallet,phone) is in. walking into them by accident will create enough distraction that you don't know they've already taken the item.
i put my stuff in my pockets and my hands in pockets at all times after i learned this.

It's possible you dropped your wallet yourself... happened to me in Vegas.
I thought someone jacked my wallet in NY:NY - went to security to report it but the guy said "Are you [name]?" which freaked me out. Apparently a stranger found my wallet and returned it intact. Unfortunately, I had already canceled my credit card by then...

naw, got pick pocketed.

Thank god, vancouver closes shops early, only gas stations and a 7/11 was where he got too.

After talking to the bouncer he knew exactly where I left it and it was returned to me intact. That bouncer was amazing....you can forget that here in Vancouver unless you have enough grease on your hand......  | |

I wear jeans that aren't too baggy, and I keep my wallet in my ass pocket (right cheek). Whenever it goes missing, that cheek gets lonely and cold 
but really, keep an eye on it at ALL TIMES

my wallet is thick & i keep it up front all the time so that i know i will never lose my wallet
plus if they do try & pick pocket my wallet it would feel weird for the both of us cuz that person would be touching my balls

That way I can tell all my friends I starred in an adult movie and finally get the penis-shaped business cards I've always wanted.
P.S. OP, I would send you my condolences over MSN except I don't know which one you are.
