According to QI, if you look around and constantly say "wallet" out loud, your chances of not overlooking it increase. Can also help with recalling where you last remember seeing/interacting with it.

My son once took all the cards our of my wallet and put them in the printer/scanner that we never use. I only found out 2 years later when I finally went to print something and there was a jam, opened the scanner lid to get inside and boom.
Could be there.
Check your car between the seat and the door, or the seat and center console. This happened to me once, then a couple years later to a neighbor, so I was able to help him find his.
bro your literally posting this from your wallet. smh my head dude
I once saw a duck steal a wallet out of a woman's bag and waddle off with it.
The same could have happened to YOU.
Should've had grapes
clearly it must be in the dishwasher
Help step bro I'm stuck
Are you walking funny .... ?
Prison wallet gang!
😄
Somewhere special that you've never put it before, so you wouldn't forget where it was
Mine once fell out of my pants while I was sitting at my office chair. It ended up perched on the bar that connects the seat back the seat bottom. There is a 3 inch gap between the back and the bottom otherwise. It took me a week to find it, and right before i was about to cancel everything. I only found it because i bumped the chair and it jiggled free.
Have you looked in the hood of a Ford Fusion in Minnesota?
Have you checked the last place you look yet?
Check here first to save a whole lot of looking.
I like to keep searching for something after I found it so that this statement isn't true. My wallet was actually at the third to last place I looked.
gnomes are holding it ransom until you right the wrong you committed against them
You ate it out of hunger and forgot about it. Happens to the best of us.
Wait, are you Wally? Of the Cincinnati Staplers? Here, take my wallet!
Try the couch cushions
JD Vance: “It’s not there. I was poking around and didn’t find it.”
Whelp, time to burn that couch.
Drawer No. 42.
Have you tried utilizing A* algorithm as a basis for your search pattern yet?
You left it where you put it so you can easily get it when you need it.
Check your laundry. And places where you might set things down when moving laundry around.
Check under the sofa
Between the cushions too
I've found my wallet is often where I first looked, just covered in other junk so I didn't see it. Also, if you drive, check the crack between the seat and the door. Hope that helps!
Slid between the bed and the wall.
Have you looked in Nature's Pocket?
I legit think I tossed my wallet in the dumpster one time while scrambling to get ready for a backpacking trip. I never ended up finding it, and we lived in a fairly small apartment so I think it indeed ended up in the landfill. Anyways, good luck!
By the shitter?
We are now supposed to call it "X" sir
We're on lemmy, we're all commie, so we don't have neither wallets nor money, and collectively re-appropriate what she capitalists stole us when needing something.
It's part of term of use, you had to throw your wallet away before joining
Did you check your pockets?
I don't know, but annoyingly my wallet/keys/phone tends to always be in the last place I look.
Of course they're all in the last place you look. Why would you keep looking for the thing in more places once you've found it?
