The one weird trick that finally got me to stop losing my keys every single day
After 6 months of dumping my pockets on the counter and still losing them 3 times a week, I drilled a small hook into the wall right inside my front door. Cost me maybe $2 at Home Depot and I haven't misplaced them since. Has anyone else stumbled onto a stupid simple fix for a daily headache?

Honestly isnt that just moving the problem though? What happens when you forget to hang them up because youre carrying groceries or your phone is ringing? I tried the hook thing and it worked for like a week until I walked in with a pizza box and just dropped my keys on the floor instead. Ngl I think training yourself to always put them in the same pocket or a specific bag pocket works way better cause its with you all day not just at home.

The hook thing works great until life throws a pizza box at you, that's the problem right there. Honestly I think the pocket method is just another layer of the same mess because you still have to remember which pocket and then you're digging around like a maniac when you're late. But hey, at least with the floor drop you can always find them later, even if it's under the couch cushion or in the fridge somehow. Maybe we should just accept that keys are like socks, they have a mind of their own and they're going to vanish no matter what system we build.
