 | | How to you deal with certain everyday dilemas? There must be countless everyday problems with multiple solutions. I have one here:
In a multi-story carpark, of the barrier-controlled sort which requires you to validate your ticket before leaving (but does not require you to display the ticket)...do you keep the ticket on you, or leave it in the car? I had always kept it on me, so that some thief can't steal my car, but having lost my ticket yesterday, I'm inclined to keep it hidden in a safe place, actually in the car. What is best?

That's where it was. I assume I lost it after sleepily removing a credit card to pay for Eldest's new dress. So it was all her fault.
Interesting that people say don't keep it in the car because of the hassle, I hadn't thought of that. It's a lot more hassle when you actually lose the thing, although this was the first time in my life it's happened.

| | A tangentially related car parking ticket dilemma:
When parking in one of those places that sting you for 50p per hour but that promise a refund from the shop next to it, do you:
a] avoid paying because you are only nipping in briefly
b] spend lots but then forget to redeem your ticket
c] not find anything you want to buy, but feel if you buy the least expensive item in the shop you might conceivably have a use for, that you've got your money's worth.
d] accept a ticket from someone else, who *did* pay, but who had only stayed five minutes
e]offer your ticket someone else ( the reverse of [d] )
f] feel really annoyed that you don't have the correct change and the machine does not give change from £1
