Secure Your Home for the Holidays with a Master Lock & Sentry Safe Giveaway!

November 25, 2014 By Leticia

As a member of Master Lock’s Live Secure Safety Squad, I have been compensated for my time in writing this post and receive samples for review.

Every year around the holidays, our neighborhood suffers a rash of burglaries. Neighbors report that their cars have been rifled through in the middle of the night, items are missing from their yards, and on occasion, homes have been broken into. These unsettling incidences make homeowners feel violated and renew the desire to protect and secure items in and around homes.

This year Master Lock and Sentry Safe want to help. As trusted manufacturers of high quality security products that you can depend on, I’m thrilled to be giving away an incredible set of six different products designed to secure your belongings through the holidays and beyond while you’re at home and away!

Secure Your Home for the Holidays w Master Lock & Sentry Safe Giveaway!

Win these 5 items courtesy of Master Lock and Sentry Safe to protect your house this holiday season and beyond!

  • Braided Steel Retractable Cable with Set Your Own Combination Lock ($12.23)— This retractable cable lock features a 2’ braided steel cable coated with vinyl to protect against scratches that provides strength and flexibility. Pull out the cable to secure items with a snug fit and then recoil the cable with a single touch thanks to the push button mechanism. This lock is great for securing sports bags, golf bags, skis, bikes, and small items around your yard.
  • Luggage Locks— Traveling for the holidays and checking your luggage? You need luggage locks. Set Your Own Combination TSA-Accepted Luggage Lock with Flexible Shackle ($9.21) and Set Your Own Combination TSA-Accepted Luggage Lock (2 pack for $18.91) provide peace of mind that bags won’t be rifled through when checked through to your destination. They’re also great for backpacks, duffel bags, sports bags, briefcases, computer bags, and jewelry and curio cabinets.
  • Looped End Cable ($10.18)— This self coiling cable is 6’ long and 3/8” in diameter to secure items such as bicycles, residential gates and fences, grills, lawnmowers, tools, and ladders when used with laminated locks, solid steel locks, and mini-U locks. Use it with padlock or combination locks you already have to keep your belongings safe.
  • Portable Mini Safe ($12.83)— This compact portable mini safe is designed to hold keys, cash, jewelry, and other personal items. The 6” cable lanyard loops back over the locking bar so the mini safe can be attached to a fixed object.
  • Sentry Safe Digital Alarm Safe ($429)— Nothing can secure valuables better than a home safe. Sentry Safes are designed to protect items in your home from unexpected dangers like fire, water, and burglars. Sentry makes their safes to withstand temperatures ranging from 1150-1850 degrees Fahrenheit, protect your items thanks to various levels of waterproof and water-resistant technology, and survive impact. Sentry Safes are heated and then dropped 15 or 30 feet, cooled, inverted, and reheated to ensure that your contents stay safe. This spring Sentry released a line of digital alarm safes that feature a touch keypad entry and a loud audible alarm. The safe’s alarm will alert its owner in the event the safe is moved, tampered with or five wrong code attempts are entered. If you’ve never shopped for a safe before and aren’t sure what to get, the helpful Find Your Safe feature can assist you in selecting the safe that’s just right for your family’s needs.

This prize pack from Master Lock and Sentry Safe is valued at almost $500 and is designed to protect your family’s belongings this holiday season and throughout the year. To enter, use the Rafflecopter form below!

    If we are going to be gone for a good while, I ask my folks to check in every couple of days. We also use a timer to turn our lights on and off periodically.

  23. Laura J says

    December 4, 2014 at 2:48 pm

    Oh we normally do not protect them very well. We try to take everything valuable with us when we leave the room, and keep in a locked truck, but thats just not always possible. We really need to do better!

  24. Lacey Burd says

    December 4, 2014 at 7:30 pm

    I have a packet of my most important information that I leave at my parents house when I’m on vacation. Other than that, unfortunately I’m pretty vulnerable. We definitely need to invest in a safe!

Today we’re celebrating National Rescue Dog Day Today we’re celebrating National Rescue Dog Day because we’re so glad Goldie and Murphy are part of our family! 🐶 We gave Goldie her forever home when she was 6 months old. She had been given up by her original family because she was just too much for them. She was an enthusiastic pup who loved to jump straight up in the air when she got excited and she used to hop the fence in the mornings to go visit her best dog friend, Katy, over our back fence. She still jumps from standing when she sees a deer, meets a favorite dog friend, or gets a visit from @lisatasch but now at age 5, she’s more calm and forever faithful. 🦮We met Murphy and his 9 brothers and sisters just days after he was born although we didn’t know he would be the puppy we’d claim as ours. Murphy has that puppy energy but in his quiet moments is a total love bug. He hogs the free space in our king bed (he even has his own pillow!) and loves nothing more than to press his body into me or lie directly on me. 🐾 Goldie and Murphy came to us through @labrescuelrcp and we couldn’t be happier that they’re part of our family! ❤️ #rescuedogday #labrescue #labrador #adoptdontshop
After 3 days at St. Jude Children’s Research Hos After 3 days at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, I’m leaving Memphis so very grateful to be able to support St. Jude’s mission of working to end childhood cancer. ❤️ Spending time connecting, brainstorming, and absorbing the wisdom of fellow Hero Ambassadors from around the country was inspiring because the work we do fundraising through our endurance events helps St. Jude do the incredible work they do to ensure families never receive a bill for their child’s treatment, housing, travel, or food and continue important research that will continue to reduce rates of pediatric cancer and other childhood diseases. I am so looking forward to running in Memphis again this December! 🎉 If you’ve ever thought of running a race that does so much good in the world, join me! I’d love to have you come to Memphis and run with me! Or you can always donate through the fundraising link in my bio. ❤️ #stjude #stjudeheroes #memphis #stjudedmv

As a teacher and parent, I am well aware of the me As a teacher and parent, I am well aware of the mental health challenges our youth face and am really pleased to share that over the weekend I became certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid through the National Council for Mental Wellbeing! 🎉 I’ve always worked to build relationships with the young people in my life- whether my kids’ friends or students- and this certification has made me more mindful of the signs and symptoms of mental health challenges so I can have important and supportive conversations when symptoms first start to appear. 🗣️A big component of the training also included developing a self-care plan which is critical when supporting others. 💕 I’m so grateful to have taken this certification for free through the University of Maryland whose blended learning format (2 hours of self paced online work + 5 hour instructor led class over Zoom) was fantastic! 💻 The teacher in me really applauds the course design and I’m glad to join the 3 million+ in the U.S. certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid. 🏥 If this is something you’re interested in doing, University of Maryland has free courses on Saturdays or Sundays from 10-4pm between June-October. Swipe ⬅️ for more information, including a QR code with more information and a survey to take as part of the sign up process. And if you have any questions- leave a comment or DM me. I’m happy to help you get certified too! ❤️ #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthfirstaid #youthmentalhealth #mentalhealthawarenessmonth
