Save the quarters for something else (like laundry) and just accumulate nickles and dimes. You will have plenty if you fequent fast food drive-through windows. I will usually have enough on hand for a few minutes so I can quickly run into a store to pick something up.

5 things you need in a car
1) Egg sandwich
2) Curling iron
3) Bowling ball
4) Aquarium
5) Football cleats

See? I can make useless posts too.

I carry a small 1G MP3 player with my favorite Techno albums. When I feel like it, I just turn them on shuffle and cruise on.

I just recently got my first car (Last week) and was thinking of things I should put in there other than jumper cables and a small toolkit. I was pondering the backpack and some clothes myself! I will make sure I bookmark this page for my next Wal-Mart visit!

Thanks!!

Condoms.

Ironically, I’ve found this is handy for helping stranded motorists as well:
– 1 gallon oil
– 1 gallon antifreeze
– 1 5000 LB towing chain
– Socket wrenches, screwdrivers, and a hammer
– Heavy duty shop towels
– Buck knife
– Jumpers
– Plastic bags
– Tire pressure gauge
– Tie downs
– Pencils, and notepad
– Wood shims and a 3 foot strip of thin, flat metal (for unlocking the car when you lock your keys in it)

Pencils instead of pen. Pencils don’t dry out.

If you insist on pens / sharpies, store them in doubled freezer bags to maximize their lifespan. Tips down, if possible.
