Magnetic Key Box:  Spare Key at the Ready!  Sometimes the simplest things can have a big positive impact…and such is the case with the magnetic key box.  Simply place your spare car key in the box, close it, and stick it to the underside of your car, beneath the bumper or somewhere else on the chassis.  Never again worry about locking yourself out of your car!  These boxes cost less than $10, and many of them can easily store a house key and a $20 bill as well.

Be sure to get a well-rated box with a strong magnet, so that it doesn’t fall off the car.  We really like the Master Lock 207D Large Magnetic Keycase, which is highly rated, and does the job well.  The other nice thing about this one is that there is no writing or anything to identify what it is on the outside of the box, so a potential thief may not notice it.  For about $6, get a magnetic key box for yourself, your spouse, and as stocking stuffers for anyone you love who drives!  The magnetic key box is a small $ investment with a big return on peace of mind!
