    Anybody have any thoughts on using ‘If found’ dog tags?

    I just bought a set on line. $8 for two embossed stainless tags, silencers, and two ball chains(1 short, 1 long).

    I now have one on the key ring with my house keys, and one on a tab on my Max ASB.

    I considered getting more but I think putting one on the ring with my flashlight/Micra/pen/pill fob, etc. is pretty much a waste of time since no one is ging to return that stuff anyway. And, rather than pay a reward that’s anywhere near the value of those items I’d prefer to just buy newer versions of everything.

    As for my truck keys: I have a spare key in my pocket, a spare at home, and a spare with my parents(in another state).
    When I bought my truck I had two extra spares made before I left the dealership.
    My keys don’t have the built-in electronic security gizmo. If you are buying a new vehicle with this feature(read problem) I would suggest you buy spare keys BEFORE you need them.

    The message on my tags is:

    IF FOUND CALL
    KEN NESTLE
    XXX-XXX-XXXX
    LEAVE MESSAGE
    CLAIM REWARD

    My phone number is for a cell phone with service based in a different city/area code, so I don’t think anyone can find my home address through the phone number, then use my own keys to rob me. I suspect they would be pretty disappointed even if they did.
