Some homes are so organized that everything is in its proper place. I think I mine is but for several reasons I find myself always looking for the remote control. I wonder if I am only the one with a problem like this.

How about you?

All the time it seems. The puppy takes it, the kids take it, it just disappears into thin air. Someone could make millions if they made a keychain where you press the button, and it locates your remote, like on a car LOL. Funny how we seem to have forgotten that the TV will still change channels by getting up, and pressing the button LOL.

yes, good idea, we can start a business here. LOL very simple one but potential money earner. It will make life easier.

cheers!

When I lived at my parents house, we always had that problem! The remote was always missing. I use to think it would be great if the remote had a beep on it like a cordless phone does when you lose it.


myLot reputation of 92/100. manong05 (2933)   ranked 35 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

That would be a nice one too. That will be a welcome innovation.

enjoy life!

yeah manong05,i try to keep my remote in the same place BUT sometimes don't and then i have to look for it which is aggravating. (once i accidentally threw my remote away. and had put the trash on the curb for pick-up. it was SCARY how close i came to REALLY losing my remote. after frantically searching everywhere i thot "What IF" it landed in the trash. so very glad i went to the trouble to bring my trash back in and search through it. YAY i found my remote. ahhh so happy and relieved. whew!


myLot reputation of 92/100. manong05 (2933)   ranked 35 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

good thing that the garbage was not collected yet, otherwise bye bye remote! The sad thing is it's not easy to purchase a new controller.

cheers!


myLot reputation of 97/100. greenglitterturtle (1898)   ranked 6,404 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

you ain't kiddin' me.


myLot reputation of 97/100. greenglitterturtle (1898)   ranked 6,404 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

thumbup i was so relieved that garbage man hadn't come yet.


myLot reputation of 92/100. manong05 (2933)   ranked 35 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

I tried to look for an exact replacement once but I was told it comes with the set and I have to contact the manufacturer. I ended up getting a universal controller that works on every brand but you don't get all the functions, just for switching channels, that's all.


myLot reputation of 97/100. greenglitterturtle (1898)   ranked 6,404 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

that confirms my fear that kept me from buying a remote once cuz it looked SO GOOD. i feared it wouldn't work well or not work at all. nothing works as well as the original remote. cheers.

lol, the same goes with us. we have a container for remote controls but the remote is always nowhere to be found! it usually takes us 15 minutes to find the remote control for the television. it's always the one that's missing due to the frequency of use and one more thing, i've got kids who were avid fans of tv shows. it's actually everywhere-- sometimes weu'll find it under the sofa, lol!


myLot reputation of 92/100. manong05 (2933)   ranked 35 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

yes, designated containers do not always solve the problem. LOL

I have this problem all the time. Sometimes, me and the kids scour the entire room just to look for that thing. I guess you're not alone. Cheers!

ugh I hate it when i cant find the remote control..that's one thing i keep telling veryone in the house to always keep the remote on one place so we dont have to keep looking for it everytime,,

there's just so much kids in the house and we cant avoid it happening most often.


myLot reputation of 92/100. manong05 (2933)   ranked 35 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

Yes, kids tend to play with them a lot. I actually had one remote contoller that was smashed to pieces and became unusable. No matter how we keep it they will always have a way to find it and play with it.

enjoy!

Yeah it happens very often on my house. Although it doesnt happen to me very often as i dont see too much television anymore. But my siblings go crazy looking for the remote control.


myLot reputation of 92/100. manong05 (2933)   ranked 35 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

There must be something that occupies yourself too much not to watch television. Actually, I'm not really a fan of TV but I hardly miss the news and documentaries.

Kids are often the cause of misplacing remote controls.

Yes, some i do have a problem with finding the hidden remote control too. Lol but, lookslike now i don't have too worry about it.. Cause my TV remote control had allready broken into...lmao


myLot reputation of 92/100. manong05 (2933)   ranked 35 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

If you can change channels without the remote, it's not that bad anyway. It's just too much trouble to stand up when you are comfortably seated. It is difficult to replace them with a good one anyway.

cheers!


myLot reputation of 90/100. Agoenxz (325)   ranked 22,785 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

Yeah, that's just very uncomfortable anyway to always stand up if we are going to switch the channel, etc... I think i'm planning to buy a new one soon! And after that i must be very carefull with that and to put it in the rite place, and also beware of my one year old kid..lol happy my lotting!
