<P>Saw this cool little device on another website...<BR><BR><IMG class="scaledImageFitWidth img bbc_img" alt="What a clever idea..... always at a loss when hiking or on the river..." src="https://sphotos-a-pao.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/p320x320/946316_556529907717142_746506896_n.jpg" rel="lightbox"><BR><BR>I think this is an outstanding idea for a safe stash!...altho, I'd be tempted to make a cover to hide the combination&nbsp;numbers by making a filp down cover plate. You could put a foosball team logo on it, a Harley shield...or the CheapRVLiving LOGO!!!! <IMG class="emoticon bbc_img" src="/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif">&nbsp;</P><P>Nobody would ever look in there for your schtuff!!!</P><P>(sorry....no links to who makes it, or where it can be found) Anyone????</P>
 
I like the trailer safe idea, unique. How does it stay dry inside though?&nbsp;<br><br>Yesterday in a store I saw a T-shirt safe. Looks like a t-shirt, but the front velcros' down to reveal pockets for money, etc. Put it under a shirt have a couple of t-shirts hang under other shirts and hidden in plain site.
 
Ain't no way my cash is going in my reese hitch.&nbsp; A spare key, maybe.&nbsp; My cash and cards, nada.&nbsp; <br><br>Here is a note: Separate your money in small amounts and in different areas.&nbsp; IE All your eggs in one basket. <br><br>Don't have large sums of money.&nbsp; The po po thinks bad and does bad things when they find over a grand or even several hundred on you.&nbsp; I have cards, but am a cash man.&nbsp; It helps me stay on a budget. <br><br>
 
I saw the hitch on facebook.&nbsp; Seemed like a good short term idea.&nbsp; At least till it got plastered all over the web.&nbsp; LOL
 
Hmmmmm.................interesting, but no. &nbsp;I did previously see that same product, but can't imagine myself using it. Where I park my vehicle, everything will get damp and may develop some corrosion. &nbsp;That can't be good for credit cards with magnetic strips. &nbsp;I have multiple sizes of gun vaults that use keys along with built-in electronic push button PIN number locks that I prefer to use instead. &nbsp;I use the gun vaults to store keys and other stuff. The larger models are a bit pricey around $150, but are built solid. They also make smaller slim models too at a lower cost.<br><br><br>
 
I must say, that I wasn't considering using this EVERY DAY...but for more like when I go for a hike or a swim.<BR><BR>A few hours at best...short term
