Hey guys, I'm the OP, for those worried about the grossness of the floor, the cleaners had just been in (the wet floor sign was still there), so I just took off the other sandal and looked a bit of a bogan, but better than replacing everything in my wallet! And for the record, my bag was not on the floor, it was resting on my (previously sandalled) feet. I've never noticed any hooks in the stalls, but then I've never expected someone to try and nick my bag either.

who take their shoes off in a public bathroom?
Wtf are they gonna do with one shoe???
Concealed carry could have prevented that.
I highly doubt that carrying a concealed weapon (I will assume that is what you are referencing) would have PREVENTED anything. The would-be purse snatcher would have still tried; OP would have still held on; the would-be purse snatcher would have still stolen the sandal. If she were quick enough, OP may have been Able to draw down on her, but highly doubtful (find weapon, ready weapon, stand up, reapply garments as needed, open stall door, locate intended target). Unless you were talking about concealer. That certainly could have prevent the issue; with enough applied in the correct location, the OP would have been concealed from would-be thief and they would not have. Priced the purse to try and steal.
Why would you leave your bag on the floor? That's why they have hooks on the back of the door so you can hang your bag there. Even if there wasn't one, I would hold my bag somehow. So I voted FYL & YDI.
She has already said that there wasn't a hook on the back of the door. And it's difficult to hold onto your bag while going to the toilet when you need your hands to get the toilet paper and wipe etc. Which is why she put her bag on her feet, it wasn't on the floor.
Omg! I've always been paranoid about that! Can't believe they took your shoe! Better than your bag though.
Were you wearing your shoes? Or did he/she force it off you?
atleast you got to keep your precious belongings!

Who the **** does that?! File, OP. That's some strange shit.
Better than your bag!:) Be glad you escaped with only one shoe stolen and not your bag, still rotten of a person to do though. And you got enough common sense to hold your bag even at places like that, so cheers:)
