Right back pocket here. My ass is so used to that lump that it feels weird if there is no wallet back there, or if I put it in another pocket.

Got rid of the wallet 15 years ago. Just a money clip that cash, drivers license and one credit card go in. (If I can't get by on that, I'm not trying.) That's in the front left; change and keys in the front right. The best side benefit is that it forces me to deal with all the receipts and other crap on a daily basis.

Front right pocket for the wallet. Front left pocket for everything else... I don't think I ever used the back pockets for anything.

I have always carried my wallet in my right back pocket when I'm not wearing a coat with an inside pocket.

I am a back right pocket person...though, my Dad and all his brothers carried it in thier left back pocket. I remember him saying that the wallet goes into the left pocket. Tried it a few times on the left, cant stand it on that side. Left pocket is for my pocket knife and comb.

Back right for me. Except when I was in Spain, where I moved it to my front right because of the risk of being pickpocketed.

Wallet, keys, pen in front right. Cell phone in front left (Mmm, cancer). Back pockets are unused; I don't like sitting on things because it makes me think about how I am breaking and/or deforming them.

Back left pocket (I'm left handed). But if I'm at a bar or club, I put it in my front pocket. There was a point where I would alternate back pockets to sort of even out my ass in the night, but that just got to be stupid.....in other words, I just forgot about it after doing it for 3 days.

edit: that is if I don't have my wallet on its chain. If the chain is hooked up, it stays in the back pocket.

let's get this changed to a front pocket poll!! I never, ever, ever carry my wallet in my back pocket......as Halx said, it's way too vulnerable. The only time I ever did it was at a race in Bristol, TN and the damn thing fell out in the bleachers. Some redneck turned it in for me, thankfully. I didn't have any money in it, even better. Thank God for honest rednecks

I carry my wallet in my right side pocket which leaves my back pocket for a hanky. Belts go through those loops around the waistband. Everything in its place.

I was back right when I drove a Geo Prizm, but when I got my MR2, I had to switch....I sat down once in my MR2's sport seats with it in my back right pocket and said...um...this ain't gonna work. That was over a year ago, and it's been front right ever since.

Front right for wallet, yes on the belt with jeans and no on the hankerchef - storing snot in my pocket is something I generally frown upon.

I have a thick wallet, and keeping it in my back pocket started to cause back problems. Especially when driving a lot. SO much better up front.

Right front for my wallet, mobile typically will go in my left cargo pocket or left front if I'm not wearing cargos along with keys hanky (yes I have a hanky, many in fact).
Putting anything of value in the back pockets to me is jnust asking to have it pinched. Also I just hate sitting on the crap - makes your arse sore!

I never keep my wallet in my back pocket because of pickpocket thieves.

Since my encounter with a pickpocket I always keep my wallet in my front pocket. It was later in the evening around 11:30 pm when my ex-wife and I were at the local 24-hour Super K-Mart buying some cheap bookshelves. She stood ahead of the shopping cart and I was behind the shopping card holding the large box steady. Well I noticed this guy stand in line behind me, then started approaching closer and closer. I noticed out of the corner of my right eye the guy’s head. It seemed as if he was trying to rest his chin on my right shoulder he was so close, then I felt a tiny tug at my back left pocket. I swing around and the guy jumps back and quickly wanders off.

NEVER again will I ever keep my wallet in my back pocket. When I was a kid I watched some guy try to pick my dad’s wallet. We were in a crowded out door market and at the time my dad had his wallet in his front pocket. So some guy walks by quickly, notices something sticking out slightly from my dad’s back pocket and pulls. The guy walking past had pulled out the lining to my dad’s back pocket instead of making off like a thief.

Then there was the time I had a hole in my pocket and my wallet fell out in a movie theater. I felt something hit my feet and I thought it was garbage from the guy behind me. So what do I do? Kick it down to the row head of me. Turns out I kicked down my wallet to the guy in front of me. I noticed the guy bend over a couple of times during the movie and glance back at me. He took all my cash, left the wallet and credit cards and dropped it back on the floor. A really dumb move on my part but I took all the precautions I could and had all my accounts closed and new account numbers issued just in case.

I don't carry a wallet.

I do have a money clip in my front right, and a small business card holder with credit cards and id in the my front left.

I don't know why.

I carry a Hanky, all the time. It's great and I have trouble imagining life without it.

Wallet in the back right pocket, because I'm right handed.

When I wear pants, I wear a belt.. Jeans, Khakis, etc.
