According to statistics, every twentieth crime is apartment theft. The peak falls on the summer (the time of holidays and summer season) and the winter New Year holidays, when most of the city residents, either leave to rest in warm regions, or spend time at the cottage.
If you become a victim of a professional thief-burglar, then, most likely, you will lose your savings and valuable things. Think in advance about how to insure your property.
So, I bring to your attention the most common places in which compassionate citizens hide their "hard earned" money. It is in these "hiding places" that housewives come first.
Boxes, caskets, bedside tables, secretaries, pianos, tables, walls - in a word, in furniture items that stand in your apartment. In ordinary life, this is not the best place to store money, and, especially, if you are going on vacation. The thief-house-owner first of all will check up these "places".
Dirty laundry. Many people think that a thief will scribble in dirty laundry. But this is not so. At the person who has penetrated into your house, if the certain purpose which it necessarily will execute. It is equally unreasonable to hide money among bed linen, clothes and other stuffing your cabinets.
Books, CDs, tapes. A professional thief knows that every fifth inhabitant of the city keeps his savings in a book. He will necessarily swirl every book in your house, scan all the boxes from the disks.
In the old-fashioned way - under the mattress. There is nothing ridiculous in this. Many modern and successful people continue the tradition of their ancestors and hide money under the mattress or under the bed.
On the wall behind the picture, photo, carpet and other "hanging" accessories. All your works on the careful and accurate placement of money on the reverse side of the carpet or picture, will be destroyed by the movement of one hand.
Ventilation grilles, flush barrels of toilets, ovens, tins, refrigerator. In all these places, the thief-housewife will necessarily conduct a thorough examination for the presence of a "hiding place" or simply enjoy the delicacies left by you. It's nice to take a break between such tiresome pursuits as a thorough examination of someone else's apartment and drink a cup of tea. According to statistics, more than 90% of the inhabitants of our vast homeland prefer to keep money exactly in such "inappropriate places" in their opinion.
Mezzanine. The robber will certainly check a bunch of old trash for the presence of hidden funds. Only to stand on ceremony and gently pull Grandma's sewing machine and old children's things, he will not. Most likely, you will find on the field a bunch of your "family values".
Appliances. There have been cases that the thief-burglar did not find the "hiding place" and decided to take something, not for nothing, he climbed into the apartment. And already at home the robber discovered that the tape recorder (dvd, computer) hid "hard earned money. Do not get caught and you are in such a stupid situation.
Under the parquet, in the wall, behind the wallpaper. For beginning "guest performers" there can be such a hiding place and it will remain a mystery, but for a professional burglar, and this secret is not a secret.
So where is the money to be stored? You ask, after all, the whole apartment is described above. It all depends on your imagination and the possibilities of the apartment. For example, you can hide money in a flowerpot, in an aquarium, old shoes, in cans with pickled cucumbers and so on. The more imperceptible will be the object in which you hide money, the greater the chance that the thief will not pay attention to him.
Another tricky trick may be the following: write a note in which you tell the thief that you transferred all the valuables and money to be deposited in the bank, and ask him not to mess up your apartment, and leave him some money. All this is left on the nightstand in the hallway or any other prominent place.
Despite the fact that it is almost impossible to protect your house from professional housekeepers, do not despair, just observe the rules of caution and security. And in general, as Georges Miloslavsky said: "Citizens, keep your money in savings banks!"
