Right before I got married, my fiancé and I decided to use our Sam's Club membership to buy groceries. While we were there, there was some discussion about whether or not we should buy this 5lb package of hamburger meat. Now, as anyone who has ever been to Sam's knows, they do not provide bags for your purchases. So, we just threw everything into the back of the car and drove back to our apartment. We unloaded everything and discovered that there was no hamburger meat in our stash. So, we concluded that we must've decided not to buy it. The Camaro sat in the parking lot, locked up, all weekend while I hung out at the pool. Monday morning, I got ready to go to work (accountant at a car dealership at the time) and opened the car door. The smell would knock you down! That hamburger had been purchased after all, and after spending 2 days in a locked car in August heat in Alabama, it was sickening! I rode to work that morning with my head hanging out the open window to avoid upchucking all over everything and sent the car straight to our detail shop. They cleaned and scrubbed and used the ozone machine, and it did help, but the odor never completely went away, and it came back every single time it rained. I finally traded the car, and a lot of the reason for that was the smell. Be careful buying anything smelly. Even if you can get some, or even most, of the odor out doesn't mean that high humidity won't bring it back to life.
Poor thing!! Sounds horrible!!
