Have you ever put things in a safe place

Someone on here suggested taking a phone photo of where you hide things. Good idea, if only I could remember to do it!

Overtime I have hidden lost Australian dollars before going on holiday, which I found about 2 years later stuck at the back of a drawer in my bedroom. On that occasion I only discovered I had "lost" them whilst actually in Australia. Thank God for credit cards.
Lost stamps bought for Christmas(they were in my purse all the time)
Often lose birthday cards, usually find that they have slippped out of the top drawer and are underneath the bottom drawer. I always check there first now.
Did think a few months ago that I had lost my engagement ring. I blamed my young grandaughters as they like to play with my jewellery. Actually found it downstairs under my HiFi player. It had been lost for some time, but that only goes to show how often I dust.

Maybe I should write all these safe places down on my writing pad, so n so went here, lol

I never learn either soda pop. I think like you. And say to myself right I’m going to put it here, two weeks later or whatever, now where did I put that dam thing

Oh yes, then find the card/jewelry or whatever months later.
Sadly, I'm very inventive with my safe places. Rarely twice the same [i think!]

All the time Trendynanny to a greater or lesser extent. The sad thing is that I never learn, I'm always convinced I will remember the safe place.

For many years now one of my wooden file boxes on the shelf with the others (Bank, Car, Legal, Insurance, etc.) has been labeled A Safe Place. Small items e.g. keys, are kept in it and there is a notebook where I list the location of things hidden elsewhere. works for me.

Many a time

Before going on holiday a couple of years ago I put most of our cards in a safe place. On return, and needing the cards, I couldn’t find them despite hours of searching and we had to cancel cards, get new bus passes, etc. It was an enormous amount of trouble and I was understandably very unpopular. Last Christmas, when searching for a present I knew I had bought, I found the secreted cards.

All I can say is it’s a good thing DH’s health means we won’t be going on holiday so I won’t have to find a hiding place!

When I see a really nice birthday card I think will be good for a person I buy it and put it in a safe place......can't find it when I need it and end up having to buy another one. My children find it amusing.

One year I bought a quantity of stamps before postage went up. Come December I could not find them anywhere when I wanted to post Christmas cards.

I do it frequently, standing joke in our family that come June/July one of the AC/GC will get a Christmas present discovered in one of my safe places.
