I just barter
No need for cash, but I do have to hitch a trailer behind me to carry my various goods that are for trade. I once got a Big Mac meal at McDonald's for a banana hanger holder thing.

yeah, i lost my wallet last friday riding to the late night diner after some drinks.

i never even carry my wallet in my back pocket anymore since ive had it fall out a few times, keep it zippered in my messenger bag. however recently they made a new policy around here that you cant bring bags into bars. so i dropped my bag off at a safe place, and put my wallet in my back pocket. by the time we rode off for the diner, i had forgotten it was still in my pocket and not my bag. retraced my ride to no avail. luckily i had no cash in it, canceled the debit card and whatnot. now the problem is just getting a new ID by next tuesday when i have to be on a plane...

Yea. I called Ralphs. Told them that the card was just purchased and they said that card is as good as cash. Pops gave me the Starbucks card too. I dont drink it that much, but he does. So he always thinks 100 bucks is a good amount.

Still incredibly pissed with myself. Should have not been riding with it in my back pocket. Im thinking of putting up signs along the route i traveled yesterday (only about a mile) Im thinking that if i can get the wallet back with all the cards in it i will give them another 100 bucks cash. I know the 200 cash is gone for good, but if i can get the $400 in gift cards back for $100 cash then thats good.

Thats a good start: Its kind of like AA. Ive modified the steps to your situation. Scratch that, I just realized that it was created in the states with all their god loving societies.

I was really disappointed, that god had to get in the way.

Thats really too bad though. I lost my wallet on the way to buy something once, and it wasn't fun at all. Like 0 fun. I was going to buy new computer parts and had $800 cash. I was carrying that much because I have a daily limit to purchases, and can only withdraw so much at a time as well. So now I have modified all my pants to have zippered pockets on the inside, so they will never fall out or get stolen.

Im really sorry by the way, you can always do what I did, or sell meth, but a real solution would be to wait, and then start living on with your life.
