Forgot to mention something dumb that happened

I was at Winco the other day, buying a 2 liter Mt. Dew.
I spent 5 minutes(TOPS) inside... came out and found a dent the size of my fist in my left rear fender.
Oddly... I parked next to the cart area, no spaces to my left. The dent was too high on the body to be a cart hit...
Logic? Someone did it on purpose, some people just plain suck.
The worst part is... all my dents(previously) were on the right door and hood. Now I have a big one on the left side, right in front of my gas cap.

CAn you do the dent removal trick. Heat the area with a hair dryer then invert a can of compressed air and chill the area and whamo, the dent pops out.

Is that effective? Or would I be better off waiting until I can pull the panel off and just pop it out from the inside?
The moment I have a garage, I plan to take that and other things off for deep cleaning, and to look for anything damaged underneath.

That sucks! =(
That's close to the cost of my last party... I drank enough that I could have died, woke up 36+ hours later with no car, no phone, and no clothes.
Found out my car was 15 miles away, with 5th gear 100% unusable, 3rd usable(if I pumped the clutch), and vomit all over the back seat.
Also, 2 days later it got stuck in reverse and I had to buy a new tranny ;(
