    There is always hope! Last March there was a snow storm, lost control of my car, went in the ditch or more end of someones lawn, end result car was totalled. Luckily, ex-husband came and stayed with me until they came and I was able to wait in his car in the people's driveway because police took 3 hours, it was a bad night for drivers. Anyways, finally I was able to help the tow truck driver pull my mangled car out of the ditch, I did have my keys at that point. Car is all hooked up, I turn it off, grab my last few things get out of the car, put my things in ex's car turn to go back to give the tow truck driver the keys, they are gone. Not in my hand, not in exs car, not in the stuff I was carrying, not in my mangled car. I lost them somewhere in the last 15 feet I walked, but snow still coming down and all stirred up from all the stuff we were doing. Too tired and sore and upset to care anymore. I knew people would be plowing their driveway the next day. Looking would be futile, I went home. Ex, went back the next day, yep driveway was plowed.......but wait there is something black sticking out of the snow. Yep you guessed it, my key. There is always hope

    I so wish you luck and hope you find them

    Well, I won't be able to look again until Monday. I'm beyond sick (pretty sure it's flu..) so DD and I are at the in-laws, so I can have a little help with her.. (DS is at daycare, thankfully.)

    Wow, that REALLY sucks! I hope you find them soon.
    they need to invent a key fob that you can track with an iPhone like they have for finding your finding your phone. But then I am so electronic/ tech ignorant that there probably is one out now.

    Yes such devices exist... I've provided some same samples in an earlier post.

    Key concerns...
    • Battery Life
    • Water resistance
    • Range... bluetooth is much shorter compared to other wireless options.

    There's the Tile app and 2 tags that require an Apple smartphone to use. https://www.thetileapp.com/

    I noticed that Shoppers has not shown that indoor key finding base station (that comes with two fobs you put on key rings) in its flyers this year. I really wanted to purchase one last year but it was not shelved yet and the flyer change was two days away (but I could not make another trip for it so out of luck)-store was not local.
