Reply to comment by GoodGoodGoody in LPT: Don't break out small or corner windows if you lock your keys in your car. by Bailmage
"use a piece of wire to attach it under the vehicle, or somewhere inconspicuous."
He literally said "under the vehicle", not inside of it. If you have the battery on you (or even also attached somewhere), and the spare fob attached to the chassis somewhere, if you're locked out you can pull the spare fob out, put the battery in and be on your way.

I put a spoon in the freezer for the same reason.

This is an excellent tip. I have a voicemail or two saved from my mom, who thankfully is still here and in general good health.
I wish I had one from a few different people, but alas, I do not.
Also, OP, I'm sorry for what you're going through right now. (Internet hugs)

Reply to LPT: Count the number of Trick or Treaters that come to your door. It’ll help with buying candy next year. My dad kept a tally for decades. Now my sibs and I do the same. Knowing we had 63 kids in 2021 helped to decide how many bags of candy to buy. by gladysk
This is what I do - I label all the full sized candy bars and goodie bags (for the little kids) that I have to give out, and then at the end of the night, I subtract what (if anything) is left, and I have my number!
This year I started with 48 goodie bags and 133 full sized bars. I'm guesstimating that I'm 80% through them all ... so far.

Reply to LPT: If you get a second job, you might need to adjust your tax withholding. Otherwise you'll probably owe a lot at the end of the year. by weluckyfew
Good tip. I got SCREWED on state taxes one year because of too little withholding.
Now I claim 0/0, plus have an extra $20 taken out per week just to make sure I don't owe, or owe a little as possible. Even when I've only worked one job I've done this, because you never know, honestly.
