Put yourself in the shoes of a burglar so you can anticipate where they’d look for your valuables.
You Will Need
- A home safe
- An empty cereal box
Step 1: Understand the burglar's motivation
Understand that the burglar has two goals: to find your valuables, and to get in and out of your house as fast as possible.
Step 2: Practice diversion with cash
Leave a small amount of cash in an obvious spot, so burglars think they’ve found all the cash in your house and won’t bother looking for more.
Step 3: Hide money and valuables
Spread out your valuables and money. Hide some in messy areas that would take a burglar too long to go through, such as a child’s room, basement, or garage.
Don’t hide valuables in obvious places like drawers or purses.
Step 4: Divert the burglar
Make a diversion box with an ordinary item, such as a cereal box. Store valuables in the box.
Step 5: Use a home safe
Store extra-valuable items in a home safe bolted to the floor.
Step 6: Inventory your stuff
Keep track of the valuables in your house in case you are the victim of burglary. But hopefully, you’ll outsmart the burglar by staying one step ahead of them.
From 1998 to 2007, property crime in the U.S. declined 10 percent.

If you own several pair of the Pheiress Pocket Boxer Briefs from stashitware then you have the perfect place to stash your cash when you leave the house. Just put your money or credit cards in the stash pocket and then place the underwear in the dirty cloths or throw them on the bed or floor or fold them and put them in the drawers. It is very unlikely that any burglar will take the time to look in your dirty underwear for anything valuable and thats where your valuables will be. And always remember to wear your Pheiress pocket boxer briefs when you travel. Pickpocket proof with easy and fast access for stashing and retrieving your valuables if the need arises. If you were a burgler would you look in my dirty underwear for money or jewelry?

And if you forget that's where you left your money and do the washing, let us hope they are Australian notes or your country uses Australian technology and your money will survive being washed.
