What do you keep in your PT?

Can't Post

Hey folks,
Just looking through my Cruiser and got to thinking....what does everyone else keep in their glove compartment? underseat drawer? rear cargo area?
In my glove compartment, I keep my manual, with my reg. and insurance in a sleeve of it. A tire pressure gauge, a pen....and some Dunkin Donuts napkins. In my underseat drawer I have my Garmin Streetpilot c330 GPS, my fiance's hairbrush, and a bunch of random junk thats got to go.
In the cargo area I bungee down a Coleman Inflate-All Quick Pump. Does tires, and air mattresses when we go camping. In the little cubby to the driver's side of the cargo area I have a bunch of bungees and ratchet straps for securing cargo inside, or on the Yakima roof rack on occasion.
Under my driver's seat, I have a collapsible sun shade for the windshield. Stuffed between the front passenger seat and the center console in a spiral bound map of the local counties. I keep a atlas of all of New York under the 2/3 half of the back seat. Since I almost never find a need to tumble the seats forward, or remove them, it is pretty unobtrusive there. In the front passenger door pocket, my fiance has almost an entire box worth of Kleenex. In my door pocket is my pair of Yak-Trax and <Ear Grips. Usually, in one of the read door pockets, I keep a flashlight.
Wow, I didn't really realise until I wrote it out, how much stuff I had in the Cruiser, or how many places there was to stow it all.
So, what kind of stuff is in your PT?

 Hi Aaron, Good topic. I have a blankie made by Blue Haze on my dash so my dash has items now that will not roll off. PM Blue Haze for details. On it I have my sunglasses, my chains for them and my regular glasses, and two glow in the dark Skeleton pens in the shape of hands.
In the glove box, manual, envelop with registration and insurance cards and, pen, bank deposit slips.
In the cubbies, papertowels, lint brush, map, rags, febreze, micro fiber towels, windex.
In the back, detail bag, enormous and overflowing. My blue fluffy lawn chair in its case.
On the top shelf of my hatch. My Husker items. My display of things from Bartlesville, and my trophy. The trophy stays with the car. Mickey 
What will you add to these items for winter? I would like to know that one so I do not forget anything.

Underseat drawer: I don't have one..... I don't think?
Trunk: Well I have the boot for the top and..... get ready..... GLOW STICKS! Blue glowsticks that I can tape to the underneath of my car for underglow! Haha it was a joke at first and we bought a bunch of them from the dollar store.

Not too much in mine. In the glove box - owner manual, crank flashlight (Inferno Red Pearl Coat) and way too many napkins. In the storage drawer I have a tire gauge, bottle of water and some dog treats. No back seats, cubby in back I have windows wipes, key for my lugnuts and a half roll of paper towel. I have a dark gray wool Army blanket covering the back floor. Left front door - trash can, right front door - maps for New England, PA and NY.

Auczrz, With my temper, I do not think I should copy you! I did carry one though in Texas, as it was a rough town and I had to make bank deposits late at night. One time, someone followed me home and then blocked my exit. I really felt powerful pullling that gun out and pointing at them, needless to say they left in a hurry, lol That was the time that a gun was not pointed back at you though Mickey
