Oh yeah - been there - but it was a worker who locked me out of the house. We had a new roof put on the house a few years ago, and there was one area that my son was concerned about, so he called the roofer back out. It was the middle of winter and I was just in my fuzzy p.j.'s when the guy showed up. I let him in the front door and was explaining the situation to him, then we walked out onto the front porch so I could show him just where it was. I went out first and he followed - pulling the door closed behind him. Oops - the lock was on!!! Both back doors were locked - and I NEVER leave the mud room door locked when I'm home - except for that day of course.He was falling all over himself with apologies and offered me his coat which I first refused, and then used his cell phone to call my DIL at work so he could take me in and pick up her keys. Well that "emergency" phone call was a disaster - and it took 45 minutes for someone at her job to find her and have her call me back. Good thing I wasn't dying!
In the meantime, I finally did accept his offer of his coat, and he drove me in town to get the keys. What a fiasco that was!
I locked my keys in my car only once when I was at the mall. One window was open just a crack, but I didn't have anything to put thru to try to get the lock open. Luckily an old man came by and managed to somehow do it, tho I don't even remember how.
