Free House Alarm

I got this idea from a crimewatch friend and it works for anybody with a car alarm and keys with automatic door locks installed in them. The next time you come home for the night, don't toss your keys in the basket or leave them in your pocket. Instead, put them on your bedside table. If you hear a noise outside your home or think someone is trying to get into your house, all you have to do is now press the panic button on your keys. This will set off your car alarm!! As you know, if you are like me and set your car off occasionally, the horn will blare until you turn it off or the car battery dies.

Voila! Security alarm system! Multitasking car! Peace of mind at night with no additional installation! Hey, don't just believe me, take it for a test drive yourself. Your car alarm should go off from anywhere inside your house. It works if you park in your driveway or garage, too. Practice turning it on and off from inside your house. Now, think about it. If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break into your house, don't you think the burglar/rapist will leave??

In my neighborhood, after a few seconds of beeping, the neighbors should be looking out their windows. What bad guy wants that? I think this is a great, cost-effective way to protect yourself and your home.
