After looking at this safety box, you would think one of the [13 arrow drawers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multidrawer) would open, but the drawers of this [sneaky safe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brown-safe-manufacturing) don't actually pull out.

Instead, there is a hole on the bottom of the box where valuables can be inserted. When the arrows of two drawers line up, your valuables can move from one section to another.

This puzzling safe would surely confuse even the owner!

**Implications** - Consumers are becoming even more protective over their [cash and other valuables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/physical-vault) as a result of the recession. Products that protect these values in a literal sense continue to hold value in the minds of protective consumers, who wish nothing more than to conceal their assets.
