Got robbed at Seaside Heights today :(

I just had door keys made today after reading this. My new suit has pocket on leg. Or I my use rope around neck trick. Glad my truck has key without fob available. Thanks for the great idea.

 

Keyless entry pads are the best!! keep your keys in the car

 

avonnc is from jersey then vb like most hatteras 'locals.' they rob cars down there,too

 

that sucks man. a lot of the hotels in seaside house the homeless durin the winter months. got to know your surrounding bro

 

thanks to this thread I have been using the key around the neck trick....wonderous. way better than taking a back pack out to the beach each day.

 

I use the valet key usually but when I rented a car and only had an electronic one, I wrapped it up in the corner of a towel and took that and a water bottle to the beach and left it on the sand. To anyone walking by, it just looks like a towel and a water bottle, no one would think there was a key wrapped in there.

 

Yeah they would actually. I'd actually assume there was keys, cellphone, and hopefully a wallet in there with credit cards. Have your cards completely wiped out before you get out of the ocean.

Its a terrible idea to leave anything on the beach unattended.

 

Local, no problem, almost everybody has a plan, or learned one on this thread.

Rentals are another story. You get the electric key and the crazy "cable" keychain/tag.

Hard to stick in boardies, and you're already a target when you pulled up.

So after reading this thread, I bought that masterlock combo key safe, looks like that's going in the luggage.
