Pinterest Find!

I found such a smart idea on Pinterest the other day and I just HAD to share it. It was an article about how you should protect your house from burglars. At the bottom they gave you an idea if you couldn't afford one of those fancy pants security alarm systems. What they said to do was to keep your car keys next to your bed. If you hear a strange sound at night like someone is breaking in, just simply grab your keys and hit the panic button so that your car alarm will go off. This will scare the intruder off because they know that the annoying car alarm will most likely wake up the entire neighborhood and people will be looking out of their windows to see whose stupid car is going off in the middle of the night. It will draw a lot of attention to your house- which is the last thing the intruder wants. And the alarm won't stop until your battery dies or you hit the button again. And if neighbors get really annoyed- they will come pound on your door to make you shut it off- which is good because you can tell them what happened and they can help you make sure that the coast is clear. Genius!!
