We didn't have anything I was worried about having stolen but I didn't like the idea of advertising we weren't home. Also - having delivered for UPS - you don't want your house flagged as a thief hazard. Once it is flagged you have to sign for every delivery. For most people that means you have to pick up every delivery at the closest depot because most people are at work when UPS is delivering.
