I need to store valuables and other things that tempt sticky fingers (electronics, expensive books, etc.) and I need to do it on a gigantic campus where theft is supposedly rather common. Yipes!

I was looking at C&N because of their construction, weight, and such. This is, of course, after hitting up Target, WalMart, and ACE. The trunklet things there are very light and pretty flimsy. Forget about the lock. I just need a screwdriver or worst case scenario a drill (allowed on campus) to bust that to pieces without drawing attention to myself. I am also a girly weakling.

The C&Ns are pricey (blech) but I’m wondering if the $100-200 trunk, which supposedly lasts “forever” and comes with a lifetime warranty is worth it. Give me your honest opinion. I’m going to be protecting over $2000 worth of stuff (but then again, I’m paranoid and many people wouldn’t want to snatch some of this anyway.)

PLEASE HELP Meeee! Thanks in advance!
