Self Defense Products

Yesterday , I saw her cousin on her way to work and I interrupter her for a few minutes because it has been a long time since we had a quick chat. I learned about her busy schedule at work now that the Holidays is fast approaching. The mall will close at 12MN to morrow due to a special Holidays Sale so that would mean she can leave work at 1AM. That is not a safe way to go home so she carries some self defense products in her bag like pepper spray to keep her protected. I am suggesting that on times that she had to go home by 1AM, why don't she just stay in her friend's home so she would feel more safe. She thought of that already but the problem is, she cannot sleep at all.
