You say 'Tomato'. I say "Parking Lot Smash & Grab"
[QUOTE=Nightowl21;6255388]No offense meant, but what possible advantage could there be to even take your wallet in with you? All you really need is the cash out of it.[/QUOTE]I've observed that opinions and feelings about this vary. While you make a very good point about, literally, taking into an AMP [B]ONLY[/B] what you need, this also implies that you, personally, feel safe about leaving valuables (smartphone, wallet, etc.) in your car. Meanwhile, other guys are terrified of someone smashing a window in their car (or even just using a slim-jim to unlock a door), and relieving them of any such valuables not taken into the AMP with them.
This may vary from AMP to AMP. For example, the Milk parking lot would seem to be too visible from a very busy street, let alone too busy itself (with guys driving in and out of there every 5 minutes) for there to seem to be much risk of car issues. On the other hand, the inside of Milk would seem still safer, given that Keiko isn't about to tolerate any of her girls doing anything so stupid as rifle through a client's belongings, which would be so quickly reported (here and other public boards) that it would kill her business.
At the other end of the spectrum, I've also been into AMPs (not in Orlando) where dubious appearing "street urchins" approach guys in the parking lot and "offer" to watch their cars for them while they are inside a place of business. Decline that $10 or $20 offer and, at a [B]MINIMUM[/B], you return to find your car "keyed" and scratched from fender to fender, while the worst case is your window is smashed with any belongings inside most likely stolen. By the way, those same "urchins" are usually so bold as to still be sitting on the curb when you come back out and, if you ask them about the damage, they'll just grin and say "[i][red]Yeah, we saw some tall white dude with a long beard, wearing bright red pants, smash up your car, but we weren't paid to watch it so we didn't do anything.[/red][/i]"
I've done both ways, but, generally speaking, I hear so little of inside theft / robbery that I usually just take everything inside with me, even at Milk. That said, I still usually only have the cash I'm planning to spend anyway.
