My Wife's purse was stolen out of her car. She's filed a police report, notified our banks, cancelled debit and credit cards, etc. She's looking at getting a 'hold' put on with the credit bureaus. What else do you guys recommend doing?

Make sure your garage door opener is not missing from the car as well.

What about other door keys?

Thanks. Gate/garage opener still there. She thinks she had spare house keys in there so we'll get the locks changed as a precaution.

I recommend you tell her not to leave her purse in the car. Or if she does, to hide it, so it isn't a lure to a would-be thief.

Any spare house key in the purse also?
You need to think about anything that could have been in there that can put you guys at risk.
I see everyone is thinking about keys also, locks changed pronto!

Get started on driver's license/ID replacement. Some areas are requiring appointments and booking can be full for months out.

Walk the neighboring roads for a few miles on both sides looking for throw out.

Don't go thru DMV for the DL. . Use a private Express place . Costs a few bucks more, but you should be in and out in less than an our, , depending on wait time there . Check ahead and have all your docs in Han. Took me 10 minutes- the second day - missing a doc.....

Be sure to get the nupgraded one for airline travel.

Put 3 or 4 purses in there and some misc jewelry.
Sit in a vehicle nearby with dark tinted windows and wait.

Watch your credit agencies to ensure they do not open any new credit cards in her name. You might want to place a security freeze on them.

If you've seen the Deathwish movies, you know what to do.

In town, Post Office parking lot. They don't have any cameras in the parking area.

Our place is in the country, fenced and gated.

I suggest you impart the idea that valuables are not protected by automobile glass.
