wallets are safe when stored
in your child's stroller. Think
again.

Keep valuables on you at
all times — and if your
parcels start: accumulating,
find a locker or a supervised
checkroom te keep them
safeguarded;

often distracted because of
the children, can make the
mistake of leaving their purs-
es on courters when
paying for merchandise cho-
