Check my idea I posted on http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf50435816.tip.html Excellent way to have an extra key for car and house.
Many times I forget the key in the car because I am busy gathering up stuff to take out. Since I can't stand the beeping, sometimes I will just pull the key out of the ignition a little. Or sometimes, I have dropped it on the seat and then forgotten it. I tend to be forgetful, and it is embarrassing to have to wait for AAA, especially after a job interview. So this spares my dignity.
What a great idea! We've got those crazy expensive keys like that and couldn't afford a spare. I didn't know you could get one that would only open the door like that. I've learned something new. Thanks for sharing! Can't wait to tell hubby. He is the one who last locked himself out somehow. :^)
Maybe the keys were taken out of the ignition and laid on the seat because she thought of something to do before leaving the car? I've done it.
Gotta love an innovative problem-solver - especially one with such a thrifty solution! Those darn auto makers must count on situations just like yours. It's wonderful how you bypassed their little "after-market" price trap. :D
That sounds good but I can't believe your doors lock when key is still in switch. My doors will not lock so I have to take my keys out and I make sure they are in my hands before I shut the door. It is shocking how much it cost to get a second key. I need to get one for my car and I guess I will save up for it! LOL
