    I once locked the rental car keys in the boot of the car in central Seattle.

    Luckily there was an Avis branch right next to the multi-storey I had parked in

    I'd hired the car at the airport, and they had the spare key there.

    They had the key at the local branch for me within an hour, and given it was easily a 45 mins drive from the airport, I was very impressed they got it to me so quickly.

    That's actually my system, which is probably the cause of the failure. Wifey is still recovering from surgery she had a few weeks ago, so, unwisely, left it all to me.

    Hah! I can blame the missus. All is well.

    I've got holiday item check list, which saves forgetting anything. Although I don't include the front door key on that list, I got back from holiday once to realise I'd been carry around my car door key, a big electronic fobber that I really wouldn't want to lose, and I didn't need. So in a way I did the inverse of the OP, I took a key with me that I would have been better off leaving in the flat.

    That's me!
