What is the purpose of hiding valuables? So that they are not found by thieves! But when you think about it, it's not that easy to find a secret place.

If a burglar breaks into your home to rob you, know that he intends to stay as little time as possible. Therefore, it will look for valuables in these places: under the mattress, in the case or under the pillow, in jars, in the underwear drawer and under the bed.

A panel of ex-burglars, organized by the John Lewis department store chain, advises hiding valuables in cereal boxes or children's toys. One of the former thieves said that boxes of pasta, rice and cereal are ideal places to hide jewelry because whoever intends to steal from you, does not have time to check the kitchen thoroughly.

Valuables can be hidden where you keep DVDs or old discs because it is more difficult to find.

In a room that is not used much, you can install a non-functional outlet. In the space inside it you can put whatever you take out and nobody will think to check.

You can use a flashlight that requires large batteries. Instead of batteries, insert money, keys, jewelry, etc. Electric, put it in the same drawer where you keep things you don't know where to take them.

Apparently, there is an unwritten rule among burglars that prohibits them from entering and searching children's rooms. Therefore, you can hide what you have to hide in the children's drawers.
