She insisted I buy her one.

I should get one of those
I sometimes forget where my car is in a major carpark, especially if there's a couple of cars that looks the same or if there's way too many white cars (had one embarrassing moment of approaching a car that isn't the same make and had the owner coming towards it as well
).
I don't mind the GPS but also be aware of Google Map's possible errors when you use the directions thing. I used it to get me to my Agriculture college, and it gave me several streets wrong that I ended up a good 10-15 mins away (could be more) from the college....
