    What kind of dog? We're coming into the colder months, and a nice Berner or Husky might keep you warmer...

    How did your wife respond to the last one?
    I'm looking for a deal on another one or two. o_O
    After the initial getting the safe where it's going to sit and collect stuff (Out of site out of Mind)
    Tell the wife it's better to have one more and not need it than to need it and not have it :p

    No. If he does that, we might find him locked in one of those safes. :eek:

    I don't know @GDJMSP If he threw some lower end coins in a nice holder, or display.
    Randy would have more room in the Tupperware containers for the good stuff. I would be at the table saying wealth has consequences it has to be stored somewhere. She is wiser than the last time you had the talk. Right?

    PS I have been single for quite a few years.
    Ask her if you can remodel the dog house.

    You would think she would be all about getting organized.
    If and when I talk safes and the eyes start to roll up :p
    Questions arise like how many you need...a good talking point is, it's a collection just like anything else :D

    Tell her you'll put it up for a vote on the forum and we will back your decision :p

    When do the polls open? I'll vote but I may not get a Christmas card from his wife though.

    Seems to me that a safe is only as good as its invisibility. If someone knows about it, then that's a security breach. My solution to the spouse issue is wait until she goes out of town, bring in the safe and hide it so she can't find it which has the added benefit of hiding it from the bad guys. And then, only access it when she's out of the house.

    Can't speak to others but this level of deception is too much effort for me so I just tell the truth and try to negotiate.

    I remember back in the 80's when Sentry put out a safe and a enclosure for it that made it look like an end table.
