A Saturday Project that is cheap to do


HOW TO INSTALL A HOME SECURITY SYSTEM WHEN ON A BUDGET

1. Go to a second-hand store and buy a pair of men's used size 14-16 work boots.

2. Place them on your front porch, along with several empty beer cans, a copy of Guns & Ammo magazine and several NRA magazines.

3. Put a few giant dog dishes next to the boots and magazines.

4. Leave a note on your door that reads:

'Hey Bubba, Big Jim, Duke and Slim, I went to the gun shop for more ammunition. Back in an hour. Don't mess with the pit bulls -- they attacked the mailman this morning and messed him up real bad. I don't think Killer took part in it but it was hard to tell from all the blood.

P S - I locked all four of 'em in the house. Better wait outside.

INSTALLATION COMPLETE

That's the best idea I heard this week! Thanks for this advice.

Love this Patty. What a terrific ruse, and quite cheap!
Hope you are both well.

That would work, provided the thieves can read or take a hint. tee hee

Triple love that one! Think of all the money that would save. And, it would probably be more effective than a traditional system. Cheers!

Just the large boots and the copy of the gun magazine with a few dead cans of beer would probably do the trick. ;) I'm going to send this to a friend who lives alone! :)
