Abstract
A cash drawer having a secured storage compartment accessible from the front when the drawer is closed or open is disclosed. The storage compartment includes a cover and bottom tray, the forward upper ends of which are upwardly positioned to define a chute which is in communication with a slot in the cash drawer front plate for depositing items such as, for example, large denomination paper currency into the storage compartment. Controlled access to the compartment is provided by a suitable lock such as, for example, a dead bolt key lock.
