Fingerprint Readers - An Affordable Security System

Here’s one option for a low-cost security system:

a pair of used, size 13 work boots for men - 5 dollars - Goodwill.
a grimy copy of "Guns and Ammo" magazine - 0.50 cents - Used bookstore.
an extra large dog dish, well chewed - 4.95 dollars - The Dollar Store.
one sheet of lined, schoolbook notepaper - 0.01 cent - Any discount retailer.
Total outlay: 10.46 dollars
Written on the note: "Bubba, Big Mike and me’ve gone to get more ammunition – be back real soon. Don't disturb the pit bulls, they just done been wormed. Later, Joe Bob.”

That’s because urban security entails more than simply keeping thieves from breaking through a mechanical lock. It involves observation, identification, and access control, since both at home and in business, most of us have things (personal items or products for sale) or information (personal records, financial information, etc.) that we don’t want others to be able to access.
