I went to the grocery store today. Among the things I purchased were a small bottle of vinegar and a rather large bottle of liquid detergent. I load the groceries in my car and I'm headed home when this lady who couldn't drive a car- probably because she first learned how to drive in a covered wagon- pulls out in front of me out of nowhere. I slam on my breaks and my large bottle of detergent lands on my small bottle of vinegar causing my freshly cleaned car to smell like a giant pickle on wheels.

Believe me, we've all had a bad day today. I was really stupid with somebody that I care a great deal about...
I say we write this weekend off and skip to next week!

Well I'm going to give you a star for the best laugh of the day.
I don't know if this stuff just broke or what. I always tighten the lids on stuff like laundry detergent and bleach just to make sure they don't spill on the way home.
I also keep a plastic bin in the trunk to put liquid items in so if anything happens the damage is contained.
Good luck, and better luck next time.

Oh man that sucks! Of course it's never the nice smelling peach body wash that busts in the car. One time somebody rear ended me at a red light and I was driving home with take out food for a few people. The drinks go flying out of the cup holders getting Pepsi, lemonade, and ice everywhere, and the hot sandwiches jumped out of their Styrofoam containers and splatter on the floor and front seat. What a mess. Your best bet is to take your car to a professional cleaning company and just get it detailed. Hopefully it doesn't turn out like that episode of Seinfeld where the smell won't come out of Jerry's car and he can't even sell it so he gives the car to a homeless guy.

You never know where or when people will do something stupid in front of you. So I try to put things in the car where they won't hit me if they go flying because of an emergency stop. But I also try to get heavy stuff into the trunk if at all possible.

Bummer! But at least you didn't have an accident and wreck your car. Better a pickle smelling car, then a totaled car.

I'm so sorry to hear that. It's mainly because people are not paying attention. Sorry again. Have a better time here, okay?

I wish I were you, my dog puked all over my car yesterday, and my daughter started screaming and my car wreaks of puke because it got down into places I couldn't get to.
