Step 1Hide it easily

Look for easily accessible places, created with a minimum of fuss, which are also easily overlooked by the casual observer. Some good examples of these places are:

     
  • Bulk dry goods such as jars of rice and flour can hide small valuables and be kept out of the way on the back shelf.
  • Condiment containers, such as mustard and mayonnaise jars in your refrigerator, can also hold small items.

     

  • Aspirin or brown pill bottles inside the medicine cabinet can be a good bet.

     

  • Packages of frozen vegetables can be thawed, and refrozen with items inside them.

Tennis balls with a small slit in them will return to their original shape. Squeeze the ball to open and stuff, then scatter it among others at the back of a closet.

     
  • Vacuum cleaner bags can hide baggies with valuables inside them.

     

  • Stuffed animals can be cut open (gently, and not around young children) and used as unlikely containers. Cut along a seam, stuff and resew Teddy before returning him to his friends.

     

  • Ceiling light fixtures can be unscrewed, and small valuables may be placed within the electrical box underneath (kudos to John D. MacDonald).

     

  • Composite "rocks" that have latchable, enclosed spaces within are available through mail-order catalogs. They can be placed outside in the garden.
