And my boys are very upset We searched everywhere all morning for the tv remote. This remote is the only way to change the settings so that they can play video games or watch dvd's. I know we had it about 6pm last night. We have looked everywhere, even in dresser drawers, kitchen cupboards and such. Dh is going out right now to get the bag of garbage I put out last night Somehow I don't think it is a coincidence that it disappeared right after my grandson got here.

That is one of the Worst things... Losing a Remote!! It drives Us crazy - Ecspecially DH!

What Kind of TV do you have that you can't Change the Settings on the TV??

we Have tvs Ranging From 20 Yrs old to 1 yr. old and they all Have Manual Buttons- Some are hidden well , But they are there.

Yrs. ago we did have a "special " Tv/vcr remote, We lost it And had to pay Panasonic 105.00 For a Replacement! -- I still Don't Understand why we Did that s, But that was in our impress Everyone with what we got days..., oh and in our 1 kid days too, so I Gusss we could afford it
Good luck , finding it!

Hope you find it. We lost ours on Christmas. I looked everywhere. I knew my nephews where playing with it at one point. Then it was gone. It took several hours but we found it behind the tv. You would think that would have been the first place we looked.

Not that you do, but we have a couch bed and have somehow found a few times stuffed in the mattress, how it got there is beyond me. Tv remotes really should have a tracking device. Good luck I hope you find it soon.

I hope you find it. If not, I got a universal remote at Walmart the other day for $5.00 that works great. It was on the end cap near the register. The kids broke the satelite remote and I actually like this universal remote better because it controls the DVD player too!

Dh found it, of course, after I dug through the bag of garbage!!! It was down the couch which of course, is the first place me and my ds's all looked!! I am going to buy a basket to put on the end table and require that all remotes always be placed in it, under penalty of grounding!!!

Glad that it was found. Anything exciting in the garbage?

Hope the boys are happy.

Glad you found it! I was going to ask if you had a recliner. That is where ours gets "lost". I have a basket on the entertainment center but my husband never uses it!
