Rye Miles #13621 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I booked a room for a upcoming 3 day shoot in July and I took my Discover card out of my wallet to give the hotel my card number. Room booked, okay great! I go to the grocery store 3 hours later and when I look for my Discover card it's not there!! Yikes! I paid with another card and came home and looked all over or that DC. I then went online, cancelled the card and they're sending me a new one, different number of course. Okay great! So where's the darn card? I looked in my wallet again and I had put in in a slot that I have my DL, CCW, Insurance card etc. and WALLAH!!!! There she is!!! I never put my credit cards there! Man getting old is not fun!!

Rip Snorter Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Worse is to remember when you could forget your card at a business, call them, and pick it up the next day with no fraudulent charges. Long ago, maybe a couple of places left out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdeacon Joe Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 When I can't find a card I pull everything out of my wallet to check. Usually I find it stuck between two other cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Mary checked us into a motel in Cody Wyoming. A little different as it had an inside door to the hall and an outside door. She came out and we parked in front of the door. She couldn't get the door to open. So she went back to the lobby and got the desk lady to go with her to the room. The desk lady opened the door and showed Mary the trick to it. I came through carrying stuff. One thing was my bottle of soft drink. Desk lady left. We got settled in. Looked for my soft drink. Nowhere to be found. Traced my steps. Searched the room and car and bags and boxes. Never found it. Not a big loss but puzzling. Only thing I can guess is the desk lady picked it up an took it with her on implus or thinking it was left in the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis the Menace Alice has gone off somewhere, so Henry has to feed Dennis. And he cuts and he mixes and he stirs and he cooks and he flips and he does this and he does that. And finally he plates it, and sets it down in front of Dennis, saying, "VOILA!" Dennis looks at it, and replies, "Wallah? Looks like hash to me."

Perro Del Diablo Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Lost my wallet one day. Drove all over 3 counties trying to backtrack. Get home went to bathroom guess what's on floor. Of course all my credit cards and debit card canceled over phone already. So should you notice the chain on my wallet you will know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Oh yeah, I guess I should go ahead and tell you. I pretty much did the same exact thing. I stuck a credit card in behind my debit card and couldn’t find it. I looked all over. The next morning I was going to call the card in as lost and I dropped my wallet. When I picked it up and opened it the card was poking out from behind my debit card. I never put anything with the debit card slot so I never looked there.

Cyrus Cassidy #45437 Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Last week I was a young 2LT in the army. On our first visit to an off-post church upon arriving at my duty station, I held a baby girl. She just got married and is having a baby now. I'm not sure what happened, but I'm a COL, too.

Wait 'til that baby has a baby and that daughter is a grandma. Our daughter # 2 has three grandkids and a fourth is on the way. Backward reels the mind!
