Greetings Thrifty Friends,
Property crimes are up in a lot of areas. Sometimes you're just unlucky. But sometimes it's a crime of opportunity; like a garage door accidentally left open. This is especially true if you have kids. Kids leave the garage door open all the time. All it takes is 60 seconds or so for someone to duck into your garage and walk off with your power tools, or your bicycle.
So save your money, save your sanity, and save your peace of mind with a
Garage Door Minder.
The Garage Door Minder monitor system is a simple solution to keep your family, home, and belongings safe. Any time your garage door lifts open, a warning light inside your home alerts you. This receiver stick works wirelessly via BLUETOOTH up to 100ft. So you'll know at a glance whether your door is open or closed!
And if you have an attached garage, an open garage door provides easy access to your house itself! The Garage Door Minder will help protect your property and help protect you!

TODAY'S THRIFTY TIP: Being Safe At Home
Use Your Curtains
Experienced burglars like to 'case' a home before they break in, so they can determine whether your goods are worth the risk. One of the easiest things you can do to make your home burglar-unfriendly is to install curtains or blinds - and then use them. If a thief can't see in, they will likely move on to the next potential victim.
Secure Sliding Doors
If you have sliding doors in your home, place a wooden rod (a cheap curtain dowel will suffice) in the track frame.
Be Cautious in What You Share Online
Don't share information online that could compromise your safety. That means don't advertise that you are going on vacation or to the hospital for a long stay.
Install 24 Hour Timers On 2 or 3 Lamps
If you are going to be out of the house or apartment for an extended period, use a 24 Hour Digital Timer to turn your lights on at your normal time, so any casual observer will never know you're not home!
