can water and of course hot glue go ahead and Rim the bottom of your smaller can with that delectable glue oh it don't hold back it doesn't have to be Freddie just effective now put the small can

just super slam the lid back into place deposit your cans safe back where you found it and only you will know the true dark secret that's buried deep inside your garage this one's simple head over to your curtains and pop the rod right out of the brackets go ahead and remove one of the end caps and now the curtains can be swiftly pushed off and discarded to the floor right where they belong and now we have to choose what we're gonna put inside hey what are you gonna be hiding in there yeah so carefully roll up your important documents until you have a tightly wound scroll slide them on in and tap it all into place at the end of the rod grab your finial and twist that bad boy back into place ensuring that the fitment is snug and secure now just head back to your window and slide your curtains back on from the other side cap that end up and snap that rod right into place gotta hide your big money grocery store monopoly pieces or whatever look no further than an xbox controller just flip it around and pop out those batteries oh and don't worry when we're done with it it's still gonna work roll up those winning pieces before covering them up with aluminum foil you want it keep it pretty tight just make sure it's about the size of a traditional double-a battery if needed go ahead and take some scissors to trim it down to size and then tap it on the tabletop to flatten it out a bit if your pho battery comes out a little shorter in stature than you plant just add a smidge of foil to the end back to the compartment go ahead and place a real battery into the slot we're gonna use the first slot since this is actually the first time the Xbox controller has ever been touched now jam your foil battery into the second slot if it fits well you can close the compartment and fire up your controller since the foil completes the circuit your device will still function normally all right you're done just stash it back where you keep all your other controllers and get back to leisurely watching One Tree Hill when it comes to sneaky hiding spots the kitchen stove is a Chamber of Secrets now of course using the insides far too risky that's why we're going down under pulling out the drawer at the base should leave you plenty of clearance to attach a small container we had this empty dental floss box on hand and it was pretty simple to yank out the plastic from the inside to make this thing work right you can use some double-sided tacks or a strong magnet we're going all in on the magnet to keep this thing portable start by picking the magnet up just use a butter knife like that lay down a fat glob of glue right onto the container and then press the magnet into the glue firmly holding that knife in place after just a few moments the glue will have dried and you can slide the knife right off leaving you something like this when the end comes we're gonna want some fruit stripe gum unfortunately it doesn't fit but that's nothing a little chopping can't fix thankfully you don't have to worry about fruit stripe becoming stale because everyone knows it's actually just multi colored cardboard anyway with everything set up pull that drawer back out and give it a lift your magnetic case will snap right onto the bottom since no one cleans there anyway you can rest assured that this stove stash won't bring the heat this next one requires you to have the most disgusting pint of ice cream available we're using avocado here but if you ever find kale flavor send us an email inside the pint we're gonna store these gold circle coins that are kicking up space in our fanny packs to remove the cream screw in a pineapple slicer until you get a firm grip and then pull it all out on mass a big spoon will probably work too so you can give that a try all right toss the coins in a baggie zip them up tight you want them to take up as little space as possible grab your cream stack and jam it back into the tub giving it a little twist once you've got most of the ice cream inside scrape off the excess before you mangle it further with a spoon mmm delicious all right toss your coin collection back in the freezer and call it a night this cold hard cash is perfectly preserved and out of harm's way not everything you've got can be hidden away in a sub-zero outlet and that's when it's time to tell a gigantic jar of flour to get over here we're gonna be stashing away this priceless copy of MORTAL KOMBAT 2 for the super nintendo system but if you don't have a giant jar of flour like we do some processed sugar kano will do as well scoop some of the flour to the side before using it to bury your wrapped piece of history once fully submerged to the bottom shake the jar around and conceal your treasure looks great now just screw the top back on and stick it back in the cabinet now it don't worry no one's gonna be raiding the flower pot any time soon first smaller important items like this magical skeleton key sometimes you're sneaky spot is in Davy Jones locker or just a fish tank since this particular key unlocks the Attic where our dark rituals are performed it's best to keep it in a plastic bag to ensure its preservation once you've got it to place wrap it tightly before zipping up the top one ensure a really tight seal now go ahead and carefully immerse your sealed sacrament into the unholy darkened water nestled it under your philosopher stump just make sure everything looks normal and you're done great job oh right one more thing if you constantly lose your house key a secret compartment may already exist in your very own backyard we found this finely crafted birdhouse to be an excellent storage facility allowing to fully conceal the key of destiny if you're looking to stash some cold hard cash a lint roller can transform into a stealthy safety deposit box in a flash and of course all while remaining completely functional just put your iron grip on the handle and give it a firm tug come on you've had plenty of practice it should pop off the plastic roller and reveal your waiting hiding place fold up your item and weave it into the slots on the roller to make sure it's secure once you've got it in place Jam that handle back onto the tape roller and clean that lint off your filthy shirt oh right if you don't believe in lint rollers a paint roller follows a similar path to success and may actually be a better alternative you see it's not often that somebody accidentally stumbles upon a paint roller and decides to use it and not to mention they've also got ample room for housing your vacation funds bringing it home with this vast stash technique is your typical aerosol can or is it just snag one that no one ever uses like this bathtub cleaner these types of caps hardly ever get removed and that's where you come in once open load it up with that money that you're saving for your taxes keeping Uncle Sam's money safely pressed against the interior walls now you can easily replace the cap in your spray will still work even better the opaque top will conceal your investment in the safety of your chemical collection under the sink well that's all we've got for you today hey oh hey don't worry about us everything's free here just have a look around Oh hold on a second oh yeah that air is so fresh and fragrant mm-hmm anyway if you're seeing this you are the resistance we're tired of winning it see you next time
