Do people in America really...


... leave a spare key to their house hidden outside, under a rock or something, like we see in the movies? Why would they do such a silly thing? What about safety?

reply

Yes, that's what we do in America.

reply

Yep...I make sure I'm in extra danger by leaving keys above the sun visor in my car
Hell, I barely ever lock up really

reply

Actually there is a relatively safe way to leave key under the floor mat, I read it in a magazine many years ago: just leave say a hundred random keys there along with the real one. You always know which one, but uninvited people would have to try one by one.

We prefer leaving a key with people we trust.

I hid a key under the stairs once, lol

It must be winter alright

reply

No way! I leave the spare key right there in the keyhole.

reply

That’s why we have lots and lots of guns.

We gotta get live target practice SOMEHOW.

reply

Yes, they also left car keys on the back of the sun visor, just like in movies. I heard America is actually quite safe, unlike in movies.

Maybe 20 plus years ago. Can't remember the last time I used a house key. Use the garage door opener code to get in. I do leave the code # under a rock out front tho.
