I found the advertising testimonials of interest as a reminder that crap happens. The bumping, the distraction, the group of kids, and the helpful person who was helping themselves to a guys wallet or purse. They weren't a "tell all" yet if I ever go someplace other than Jamaica, definately a product to consider, or at least remember.
In the NY city subway system, Dad said always put your wallet in your front pocket.
Once I reach my destination on the island, the wallet stays in my room (which is another subject) since there isn't any need.
I haven't read anything about theft in Negril for a long time. Not since a "through the window" event where I found clipping my fanny pack around the leg of the bed was standard practice while sleeping.
As for fanny packs, ever notice how many locals will inform you when the zipper isn't closed? Honest people, and they want you to have a good vacation.
PS I don't just stuff my $$ in my front pocket like locals. I've dropped too much over time without knowing it.
