Like eveyone is saying it sounds like a ground issue and being that your losing everything, Then its most likely in the battery ground cable.

At the most to fix it would cost you $10 and thats to do it correctly.

First check the connections on the battery. Make sure they are tight and clean.

After that, follow the ground (negitive) cable from the battery to where it connects to the chassis and make sure that its clean and tight too.

Also, Have you actually checked to make sure that the battery is not drained???

Just because you personally didn't leave anything on, doesn't mean that it didn't get drained from something else. For example, a shorted diode in the alternator will drain a battery in very short order. Also, it a couple of cells in the battery shorted, this will cause a lose of battery power too....

Lastly (atleast for now) did you recently, do anything to the car that involved the electrical system like say a stereo system install, etc...???
