With the car off, start by pulling the negative battery cable and putting an ammeter in between the cable and the battery post. Should be <30 mA or so with everything off. If it's not, try pulling fuses one at a time until you find the drain.

If you have *any* aftermarket stuff (like an alarm) start by focusing on that.
