What was the biggest flub on a trip?

Until we started making check lists that we just review and update we always spent the first 100 miles or so quizzing each other on what we may have forgot and making a list. When we couldn't add any more to the list we would stop at Walmart. I don't think we ever forgot anything that we couldn't replace at Walmart a hardware store or RV store.
Reading through the thread two things did come to mind bigger than the above stuff. We were truck campers for many years and used a fold up plastic step to get in and out. One trip it was left in our driveway. The other thing actually happened twice, I pull a 12 foot inclosed trailer a couple of trips per year. I bought the flip down jack option for the back of the trailer so we could come and go from the ramp tailgate when it was unhooked. Worked well for a few years then I forgot to put them up after loading at home and ripped them off before I figured out why the trailer was pulling hard. Decided not to replace the jacks and made up some short jack stands that I carried inside the trailer and put under the back. That worked well for a couple of years till I drove off and left them behind two Summer ago (we are going back to that spot in July I may ask the caretaker if he found them). So I picked up another set of jack stands. At least the free standing ones don't cause damage when you drive away.
