Place: Bed, Bath and Beyond (parking lot)
Time: Late
Weather: Ridiculously cold and snowy
Me: Flailing my arms at Mr. Policeman
Policeman: Looking around and figuring out I'm waving at him
Me: Excuse me! I'm not sure if this is just in the movies, or if you can really help with this, but is there anyway you could break into my car?
Policeman: Talking into radio- Does anyone in block 18 have a slim jim? Roger that- girl will be standing on corner in blue coat, waving you down.
Me: Standing on nearest corner for half an hour- waving at every car that looks like it might be a cop. A few confusing interactions with taxis (that look EXACTLY the same as police cars here).
Policeman 2: After breaking in- Get yo keys. Get yo keys.
Me: Giving out hugs to policemen and anyone else who will take one. Over-freaking-joyed.
Lesson learned: More people need copies of my car keys.

I've done that a few times too, never a fun ordeal.
I've become a big big fan of the little metal container that you hide on the underside of the car with a spare..works like a charm!
