Roof rack, radio antenna, or just a balloon on one of the wipers. Need enough string so the balloon is high enough to see. It needs to be loose so it will move as movement attracts the eye.

I don't put anything on top. I usually remember in the area of where I parked. A lot of bigger stores have the isles numbered. And you can always hit the unlock button on your car that makes noise and follow the noise.

Washingtonapple, well how wonderful for you that you can remember but sometimes, even if we do have a good memory, it's difficult when you're overly tired or just don't feel well and not everyone has an alarm system and some alarm systems do not make a beeping noise. Plus you didn't answer Mari's particular question - LOL ;-)

I use one of the flags you can attach to the window. That was great when we were in DC and trying to caravan with another vehicle!

Radio antenna is the usual site. If your car doesn't have one, you could use the roof rack, or you could get one of those flags that fit in the window that show your favorite sports team, and then add something to that. It isn't as high as an antenna, but it will help.

I bought a roll of bright pink tape @ Lowe's and used to tie a piece of it to the top of my antenna. My new car has no antenna so I locked a piece of the tape in the back of both rear windows and the front of the sun roof. I also have tied a piece of it to my back license plate cover. This makes it easy to tell my car from all the other ones that look almost exactly the same.

I don't use the front windows as the tape makes noises in the wind that I would rather not listen to. When it wears down to a nub I just replace it with another 3" piece from my roll. The other thing I do is park in the same place at all the stores I go to - far left (shade there!) @ Walmart, far right @ Safeway, etc.
