That's really terrible.
I had a similar experience but different outcome the past few days as well. I actually can't believe I saw this posted here, as I was about to start this thread anyway.
So I lost my wallet a couple days ago. Now, admittedly my story ends happier as I found it the next day, perplexingly in an area I'd sworn I'd searched already. But that's not the point. The point, is that I've decided a wallet is a single point of failure and I'm never carrying one again. Indeed, I've been wallet free for two whole days now!
Here's what I've done:
1. Apple Pay contains my credit card. So far it has been accepted everywhere I've shopped.
2. I put photos of my license, insurance, & covid cards on my phone in an easily accessible app. AAA card too.
3. I put store specific cards that won't go in Apple Wallet in my car's glove compartment. But for instance my Panera card went into Apple Wallet.
4. My library offers a phone app as well for check-out, so I will use that instead of the old card. They don't even give new members library cards any more.
So far so good. I think cash is a thing of the past, but I've got a few bucks in the glove compartment as well just in case.
