Switched from the back pocket to the front pocket this year. Great decision. It was always back right, now it changes in the front depending on which pocket my phone is already in.

 
Other - I keep my wallet in my glove box. It holds some cash, some miscellaneous cards, and my work credit card which I use for gas.

I keep my phone in my front pocket which holds my drivers license, my main CC and a $20.

 
GREAT POLL

Never know what to do with mine. Currently back left then desk at work but hate sitting on it and hate how it looks in front. Hoping someone has the right answer.

 
I have always been a back right for jeans and dress pants, but front pocket for shorts. Been giving the front pocket a whirl this week - its not bad, but not earth shattering either.

 
my money clip thingy is very similar in size to a wallet. Why aren't you interested in where I put it????

 
What kind of uncivilized man puts his wallet in his FRONT pocket? :loco:
I had back pain while sitting in my chair at work with my wallet in my back pocket. I think it was caused by my butt cheeks being un-even on the seat. I moved the wallet to my front pocket and the pain went away. I suppose I could have shoved some napkins in the other back pocket to even it out instead

 
Walking around in shorts - front pocket, opposite of cell

Walking around in khakis - front pocket, opposite of cell

Walking around in jeans - back right

At work - in my desk drawer

In the car - on the middle console

At home - in a countertop bin

 
Front pockets?

"Is that a wallet in your pocket or are ya glad to see me?"

:hey: Started doing this a long time ago when someone mentioned it being harder for pickpockets to steal in crowds. No idea if that's true.

LPT: Don't put your wallet in your back pocket. It tilts the axis of your pelvis and over time can cause or exacerbate low back or hip issues.
that's why I take it out of my pocket when I sit down.

 
During work - in my backpack

Nights/weekends - front right pocket no matter what I'm wearing

I HATE carrying my wallet on me - just annoys the #### out of me. I can't wait until I can have my DL and Check/Debit cards on my phone. I'll never carry a wallet again.

 
I just purchased a combination money clip/CC holder after trying the wallet in the front pocket for a few months. I was having back and leg pain from carrying my wallet in my back right pocket which I have done for about 30+ years. It takes some getting used to but I love it so far. One of the things that I used to do and I am sure many of you do as well is save way too much junk in my wallet. With what I have now I can't accumulate too many scraps of paper/receipts etc. You're not going to be carrying tons of cash in the money clip section, but that's not so much an issue for most people now since most everyone uses a debit card.

I used to use just a clip- put that in the front pocket.

the thing you posted always made sense to me-not sure why I haven't jumped in yet. I carry cash (usually enough to emergency pay a babysitter, so $100 or so), business cards, id cards (driver, kids' school, insurance) a handful of credit cards (4ish), and receipts (I try to empty these out every few days). That starts to fill up a smaller wallet pretty fast.

 
Front right pocket always. Started doing that when I traveled to avoid any pick-pocketing and have done it ever since. My keys go in the same pocket after the wallet. Phone goes in the front left so that it doesn't get scratched by keys. I don't put anything in my back pockets as it does interfere with sitting. And, if I'm in a spot where I do worry about my wallet, I just keep my hand in the pocket and don't have to worry.

Switch the pockets and that's exactly what I do (left handed).

Wallet: back right

Phone: front right

Keys: front left

Exception: If I'm wearing basketball shorts with pockets, I'll do phone in right, wallet and keys in left.

I'm trying to put seldom used cards in my car. I just need to remember to bring them into store X. While some loyalty cards I can put on my phone, some (Costco) doesn't work that way.
