Take Your Car Keys To Bed
Even if you've never bought a burglar alarm, you probably already own a pretty good security system. The electronic door opener that comes with most new car keys has a built-in panic alarm that sets off your car horn. Keep your keys near your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside or someone trying to get into your house, just press the panic button and your car horn will sound until the battery wears down. The unexpected sound of the alarm might just be enough to scare off most intruders.

If they should fall, or have a heart attack, they can use it as an emergency alarm.Click here to download page story appeared in.
