Learn2 Stash Stuff Discreetly
(Continued)
Hide 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.
