Another day, another frustrating situation. I swear, I just bought/got/acquired a new lock last month and now I'm barred in my own apartment! I've tried every trick I know. The spare key is, of course, somewhere else. I even looked around for a possible window, but no luck. At this point, I'm just fuming/frustrated/aggravated. Maybe it's time to invest in a robot butler...
Whoa! Keys Inside, Car Outside! ????
Seriously, this totally happened to me last night. I was parking back to my car after grocery shopping and noticed that I accidentally took my keys inside! My eyes widened because, of course, the car were all sealed. It was a complete nightmare!
- I attempted to reach in the window, but it was impossible.
- Afterward, I had to call a mechanic which was not ideal.
So yeah,take it from me, always double-check your keys before you walk away!
Help! I Locked Myself Out! OMG, I can't get in!
It happened so fast. I was/I had been/I'd been out for a walk and just for a second/momentarily/in a flash, I left them inside . Now, here I am / I'm stuck / I'm trapped outside with no way in . My phone is about to die, and I don't have a spare key/my spare key is somewhere safe at home/nobody else knows where it is. What am I going to do?!
- Is there a way to pick the lock myself?
- This is the worst day ever.
Hopefully, something will come up!
Car Key Dilemma

First things first, look through all the usual spots - your pockets, on the kitchen counter, or maybe even in that pile you haven't touched in months. If they're gone AWOL, it's time to figure things out.
- Call a locksmith. It might seem like the priciest solution, but sometimes it's the easiest way to get back on the road.
- Contact your car dealership. They may be able to provide you with a spare key or at least point you in the right direction.
- Take a look at your insurance policy. You might be surprised to find that your auto insurance covers key replacement.
