With the Economy Declining and Crime Increasing, Home Security Products are Expected to be on Many Holiday Wish Lists

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- 'Tis the season for shopping. But this year, instead of that flat screen TV or fashionable piece of jewelry, savvy shoppers are looking closer to home. They are considering home security products, ranging from surveillance video cameras to motion detector lights.

"Certainly there is nothing sexy about a flood light or a sliding door bar, but these gadgets and many others can help protect your loved ones and give peace of mind during these tough economic times when crime is rising," said Kathleen Baty, a former crime victim and nationally-regarded security expert known as the 'Safety Chick.' "Most of these items are very affordable and can bring added cost-savings like discounts on homeowner insurance rates."

Some of the Safety Chick's top picks include:

ADT's SafeWatch SafePass(TM) - $20 for each key tag
