We all have that one place in our homes that gets the privilege of holding our most valuable belongings. Not many people know about it, and it could be anything from a locked drawer to an old tin of cat food.

In this eye-opening post, we get to see other people’s ingenious ways of protecting their valuables. Some of them have gone the extra length of building secret shelves in their furniture. Others took their most precious things outside and placed them in hidden boxes carved at the bottom of birdhouses.

It appears that some of us would do anything to keep the thieves away. Those with fewer resources or time on their hands hide money rolls in peanut jars or wrap everything up in what appears to be a used diaper when going to the beach.

Let’s hope that these sneaky pics will inspire you and that the thieves are too busy looking elsewhere.
