Default Keys???? (Just for laughs)

We have a box of keys, rings and fobs we have kept over too many years.
There are example of every key ever made (I think). Suitcase, ignition, house, boat, other houses and other just about everything else.

It has been a one way box. Something always going in and nothing ever comes out. I have never thrown a key away....I guess just in case one is ever needed....again.

Does anybody else save keys?
I am starting to get close to disposal time!!

You do know you will need it the second you throw it away.

I kept a box of keys for many years and only threw it away when I sold my house. Not one key ever turned up useful. I don't think they were even our keys, I think many of them had been left in the house by other people.

I have a wooden box with all kinds of keys. Some came from my parents and my grandparents. It weighs a ton.
