If you own your home, there are a great many places to hide valuables that are unlikely to be found by an average burglar. If you're being targeted by a sophisticated burglar, you've probably got other problems, anyway. Garden beds, somewhere in your crawlspace, beneath a compost pile, etc are all fine places to stash things. It might be time to go back the good ol' days of treasure maps (only half joking).

Me, personally, my wealth is in the my wood scrap storage in the loft of my shop. Great returns on investments this year alone!!! Cash under the mattress is now antiquated. It's all about lumber, baby.

  My wealth is buried in a field on my property. Gold, diamonds, cash! It's spread out in a configuration similar to where you would put piping for lawn sprinklers. Email me for a schematic and hours that I will not be home.

    As a slob, my valuables are safely tucked away under piles of junk. Security through obscurity works wonders in the physical realm.

    Would you mind dropping them off at my place? I'm a bit too busy for a treasure hunt this weekend.

Just don't stash things in your oven (unless it really can't heat up). One might think it's great because it's heat resistant, and a burglar is unlikely to open it, and that's true; but, there's a non-zero chance of a guest turning it on with the intent of baking something, without checking if it's empty.

  My mom actually bought a new laptop, stashed it in the oven to go to the dentist (the laptop was 1 day old!), got home, and turned oven on to cook something.

    On the bright side, the motherboard’s solder was reflowed.

  similarly, don't hide stuff in the freezer - it seems like a clever place that nobody will think to look in, but everybody else has had the same thought & it's one of the first places anyone even remotely experienced will search
