here in Australia, i would probably be shot if i was seen installing it.. were going though a drought and no one is allowed to water there garden let alone there grass!
ill just keep the key hidden in the cracks of the dirt patch we have haha
@fuddbutter: The town I live in is constantly under a water ban, whether there is a drought or not. I think that has more to do with it being a growing town that can't keep up with itself.
@WaffleTeamStrike: Are you just looking for a reason to comment? WTF? Also, who is get and why is get possessing something or who is the us that something is being gotten for?
The best idea is still to roll-your-own hideaway. Find something in your own yard that will hold your keys and stick 'em in it. Make sure that it is something that you would normally use for something else, and make sure you can retrieve the keys without anyone seeing what you are really doing with that everyday object.
Once published in places like this, even the coolest ideas become less effective.
Someone that would use your keys to go in your house would also probably stake it out for a few days to see when you come and go and when the best time to enter would be.
They may see your "sprinkler head" NOT watering and they'd may even see you use the sprinkler hideaway.
I'm not giving away where my keys are hidden, but it is a place where, if you were to see me retrieve them, you'd not see the keys or think anything of my actions.
@mhlaxp: Seriously. If you are going to nitpick about how this key concealer isn't the best way of hiding your keys, why not mention that the best way of hiding your keys is to not hide them, rather, you know, carry them with you. I have only ever been locked out of the house when I was too young to stay home by myself and was told to go to someone else's house if no one was home. Since I have been driving though, my keys never leave my side. That, and we have a door that can't be locked unless the door is closed. That makes it kind of hard to lock your keys in the house. If someone is scoping out your house, they shouldn't see that you use the sprinkler to hide your keys because it shouldn't be an everyday occurrence that you use the spare key and if you use it one day while someone is in a car watching you and put your key back in the same place the next day, you aren't too bright, are you. Of course, that probably explains why you are locking yourself out of your house all the time in the first place.
@Shamoononon has a hebetudinous dog: Do you cut the grass with a weed whacker? That's what we did when we lived in the city. That, or one of those old timey push and pull lawnmowers where you moving it makes the blade spin. It's too bad getting a decent one of those things nowadays is actually kind of expensive.
@ceilingFANBOY: Hrm... The home depot in my town has a model that is $80 with a life time warranty on the blade and gears. But regular maintenance (and LOTS of oil) is really the only way to keep those things working well.

As it turned out, it's still not a good way to keep your begonias alive.
