Sorry for your loss.

Happened here a year of so ago. Jane left her purse in the car and the car unlocked. Someone had a real good day.

I installed a couple motion detecting spots. About $ 25 each. They come on very bright when someone walks near the garage. No repeat incidents.

It's really sad that people stoop to this level. My parents tell me about a day when you could leave your keys in the car and not lock the front door. However, those days are definitely over now.

My wife before I met her forgot to lock the front door to her apartment one day. She came out of her bedroom (with no shirt on BTW) to find some guy rifling through her purse. She lived in a secure building but someone must have let this guy in and her door happened to be open. He ran out with her wallet in hand. Luckily, she had little cash in there and she quickly cancelled all of her cards.

Could have been worse, but still sucks.

That sucks man, I have been through that, last summer kids broke into my garage and only took my gas powered weed eater. WTF? I don't think it would be too easy to pawn that. And the kicker is, as in your case, it isn't worth the deductable on your insurance to put in a claim. I feel for you brother.....

That really sucks. I had my radio stolen out of my vehicle a while ago and I remember the anger I felt.

We got motion detectors like for a store, so the bell dings when motion is detected. Worked really well, as it woke us up in time for me to run to the door with the shotgun and look angry.

Also works for teenagers who try and have "guests" sneak through the windows.

Sorry to hear Jeff, but I'm glad nothing major was stolen.

Pathetic! Agree that some of the things mentioned above might help. I understand the "Barking Dog" detectors sound very realistic!
