Need a solution for my car at the parking lot!
|
|
Hi everyone, most of us have the habit of forgetting something particular all the time. I always end up forgetting my car at the parking lot. I am somewhat not comfortable in saying this, but yes, there have been many instances like this with me and I can’t help myself out. I do remember to carry my iPhone with me but am helpless on the issue of my car. There might be someone like me who can answer my problems as to what do they do or would hope some good suggestions from you people so that I can be comfortable when finding my car in the lot.
Thanks in advance!

I really don't know what to say,,,maybe a doctor can help you out, sounds like you have a medical issue. I have never forgotten that I drove my car to do some shopping, sometimes in a large mall parking lot it takes a while to find it but I never completely forgot I that I drove there.

i think that's what (s)he was trying to say ~ they forget where they've parked their car when they go places.
i know lots of folks put something on their antennas ~ that might help you single out your car.
Also, i've used my electronic unlocker gizmo, at night, because it will flash the lights for me.
Hope that helps!

Thank you, Fyrenza! I got the same impression, that this person forgets where they park their car. I am also guilty of this  What I do, is I try to park beside a lamp post, or the cart thingy, or something I can easily identify, or I count how many rows down from the door I park.
I hope this helps!

Truth is, i have something like that, too ~
i get lost in familliar surroundings.
Like, if i pull into a convenience store from one main road, then accidently LEAVE onto the OTHER road, i can be lost for hours...
It's actually pretty horrible, because i recognize all of the street names and have a vague idea where i am, but it takes me forever to get myself re-oriented.
i'd imagine that we all have some weird little glitch like that in our brains!

This is just a common problem, I don’t think that you need to feel awkward or anything like that. Like, I have a small problem of losing my watches…I just don’t understand where I loose them! But, anyways, as a solution to your problem, I would suggest the use of car spotter which is an easy-to-use vehicle locator that uses the iPhone's navigational GPS system. It is a great application especially for you as your problem will be totally solved and you would like its other features too.

I removed your link it sent me to the i-tunes store, and I didn't see any car spotter information when I clicked on it.

I just count alot  it's weird, but works for me...
I'm somewhat of a mathematical brain, so if this doesn't work for you, try the alphabet
Just park somewhere and whilst walking to the enterance, walk in straight lines, horizontally and vertically, and just count the rows and spots... And then just remember to go left or right when you come back out..
:-p If you go in for a quick shop you could always put on the alarm that ought to do the trick also...
