Where to keep that cut off key

[Frye]

Where do you guys get your keys made? Honda said they'd make my keys for free but would charge me $48 each for the blanks. Do lock shops and department stores carry the right blanks?

HOKEY SMOKES BULLWINKLE... $48 each for the key blanks. I tried to get a spare made at my local ACE Hardware store where the guy insisted they were chipped keys. I told him they were just inexpensive keys. He kept passing it thru a little display that lights up when near a chipped key and seemed shocked after about 20 seconds of that then made me a key for about $5. After taking it home I found it wouldn't go all the way down into the ignition.
Later on I went to the next town about ten minutes away which has an actual Key and Lock store; the guy at the counter made the correct one and it was maybe $6.50.... and it works well. I will go back to get more made.
An area Walmart has installed an automatic key making machine; it looks like a big soda pop vending machine. I don't know anyone yet who has used it, so until I get a good review I will keep going back to the Lock and Key store for a guaranteed good copy.Between Brazil and TH Indiana, you will do much better finding a company who will give you a good copy for way less than the stealership.
Note: I was a little worried about my shortened spares glued to the radio knobs for the gas and cubbyhole popping out and running away.
I just glued two litttle but powerful neodymium (sp?) to the keys and they stay put, being attracted to the metal key hole.
