I was getting impatient(1st mistake) waiting to install my new sound system in my last truck. I had just bought the head unit, and was waiting for my pizza at the restaurant. I decided it would be a quick job, and I did it. The install went fine, and I was just buttoning up my dash when they told me my pizza was ready. I had the ignition on and the truck running, and I got out, locked the doors, and closed the door to the first click before I realized what I had done.
To make things worse, my dad is the only one with spare keys to my truck,and he was out of town for a week. My neighbors, who have spare house keys, were out of town also. I thought I was screwed. Then I remembered an idea I had less than a week earlier. I had put spare house and truck keys in my wallet, tucked in with my license just in case of a situation like this. I unlocked the truck and realized how bad I almost screwed up. I have made sure to update my spares for my last few vehicles, and be careful not to let it happen again.

I know, long winded speech over.

My truck came w/ a "credit card" key. It came in a credit card size holder and I keep it in my wallet at all times. Good thing about it is that it only unlocks the doors, doesn't start the truck. I've had to use it a couple times now.
