Cheap things that help

  • Door wedge alarm — Sits under a door and sounds a loud alarm if it is pushed open.
  • Portable door lock — Adds a second lock to any inward door. Good for rentals and hotels.
  • Light timer outlets — Turns lamps on and off on a schedule so the place looks lived-in.
  • Personal alarm — A keychain siren you pull for attention when walking at night.
  • Fire blanket — Smothers a small kitchen fire. Cheaper and simpler than an extinguisher.
