New 'safe' bed allows savers to safely store their cash under the mattress
Edited on Fri Mar-06-09 10:18 AM by RedEarth
Bed manufacturer Feather & Black is offering savers who have lost faith in the banks somewhere to keep their money safely – under the mattress in a concealed safe



The bed manufacturer reckons that finding someway to keep your cash safe is becoming increasingly problematic. So it has come up with a new divan bed that conceals a safe.

The company admitted it was a 'tongue-in-cheek product' but added that it was a serious proposition.

A small safe with a sturdy lock the compact box is big enough to store a stack of notes, securities or valuable belonging like jewellery. Covered with a valance or chunky throw the safe will remain hidden from prying eyes, the company said.

3. Sorry, still not good enough for me
I would like to see something in a more durable coffee can to put my money in before I bury it in the backyard.
