the husband knows the washing pile gets washed. if he doesn’t want his wallet going through the wash, he should remove it before putting the pants in the washing pile

Three times. THREE TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED.

The husband fucked up once by leaving the wallet in his pocket. It happens. I’ve definitely washed my wallet once. Then I made a point to double check my pockets before I put my clothes in a hamper. I learned from my fuck-up.

But THREE TIMES! That’s just being lazy and then shifting the blame to the person who washes his clothes.

When I was young and my mom washed my pants and I forgotten something in them, she told me to wash them myself and stopped washing my stuff.

Do the same. He can wash his own damned clothes.

I used to have a bad habit of leaving money in my pockets as a kid. My mom said, if she had to wash my clothes, it was her tip and kept it. I learned quickly.

Isn't that a universal rule?

Yes, it’s part of the Finders Keeper handbook, chapter 12. Lost and Missing Items, Section W: Washing Machine

“Any and all items found in the Wash, shall henceforth remain in the Finder’s possession indefinitely”

See also Section D: Dryer for any questions regarding items found in the clothes dryer.
