Most burglars are in and out in under ten minutes. They’re hitting the bedroom, the nightstand, the jewelry box — the obvious spots. Nobody’s standing at your open fridge reading beer labels. That’s the whole idea behind the MGD Can Diversion Safe: it hides your small valuables exactly where a thief isn’t going to look, right in plain sight.
Who This Diversion Safe Is For
This one is good for renters who can’t bolt a wall safe to the studs, college students in dorms, single parents who want a simple backup stash spot, and anyone who keeps a little emergency cash, a spare key, or small jewelry around the house. If you want a second layer of security without spending a lot of money or doing any installation, this is worth every bit of its $12.95 price tag.

Care and What’s Included
What’s in the Box
You get one MGD Can Diversion Safe with the screw-top compartment already assembled. It’s ready to use straight out of the packaging — no setup needed.

Wipe it down with a damp cloth occasionally like you would any can in your fridge. For best cover, keep it surrounded by a few real cans or bottles rather than setting it alone on a shelf.
MGD Can Diversion Safe: Frequently Asked Questions
How big is the storage compartment inside the MGD Can Diversion Safe?
The interior measures 1¼” x 3¾”. That’s enough to hold a rolled stack of bills, a spare key, a small ring, or a folded note. It’s not designed for bulky items — think small, flat, and thin. If you need more capacity, consider stacking a second diversion safe in a different spot around the house.
Does the MGD Can Diversion Safe actually feel like a real can?
Yes. It weighs 0.7 lbs, which gives it the heft of a full can when someone picks it up. The label graphics match a real Miller Genuine Draft can. Most people won’t question it, especially when it’s sitting among other cans in the fridge door where nobody’s paying close attention.
Where should I keep it for the best concealment?
Your refrigerator door is the ideal spot — surrounded by a few real cans or bottles. Avoid leaving it alone on an empty shelf or in a spot where it would stand out. The whole idea is that it disappears into an ordinary-looking environment. The more normal your fridge looks, the better this works.
What are the limitations of a diversion safe like this?
Now look — this isn’t going to stop a methodical burglar who empties every drawer and cabinet. It works because most break-ins are fast and opportunistic. A determined, thorough search of your home is a different situation. Use this as one layer of your home security strategy, not the only one. It’s an excellent place to stash everyday small valuables at a price that makes sense.
Add a Diversion Safe to Your Home Setup
Toss the MGD Can Diversion Safe in the fridge and stop worrying about where you tucked that spare key or emergency cash. Add it to your cart now, and take a look at the other diversion safes in the shop if you want to spread your valuables across a couple of different spots — that’s always a smart move. Stay safe out there.
