Doortop Stash

...Except thieves who read Neatorama.

There are much better and easier ways to hide your valuables. Like vonskippy says that's a particularly good way to lose your stuff inside the door. But if the stuff you want to keep safe is small enough to keep in a cigar tube, why not just take it with you?

Of course when the lid slips off and your stash falls completely inside the hollow door then it's REALLY hidden.

Smart. Thieves usually want to get into a place and out asap. They don't have the time to go around checking every door frame. It's usually smash and grab.

They also don't like going into places that don't have 2 doors or a door and a window: Like a basement. A cop told me one of the best places to put valuables is in the basement in a place that's hard to access. Just leave a note in a safety deposit box for relatives incase you expire suddenly...

i guess it's not a secret anymore :D
