Block thieving hands sneaking into your purse

Dear Answer Angel: I'm hoping you could write a column on security when shopping. Just this past week I was pick-pocketed. I realized it five minutes later. Needless to say, I have been busy filling out reports and replacing cards that were stolen. It's a scary experience, and I want others to avoid it if possible. I hope you can spread the word for others.
