Where do you stash money when you are out?
« on: July 12, 2017, 05:56:43 am »
If you are traveling I was told to stash money in other places than in your wallet in case you get pickpocket. So where would be a good place to stash your money so you do not end up being a victim?

In my pocket with a spring clip around it and my hand over it.

I just spent a few weeks in Europe and had no issues carrying my passport and wallet in a small clutch purse.

My dog is with me every where I go....  i dare someone to get that close. She watches me and her truck I could leave a open wallet  on the seat with the truck running and unlocked. They would have to shoot her, even people she knows are not getting near her truck till i'm in it.

that would still be a private answer, you shouldn't tell anyone where you  would stash your money, and you shouldn't ask people to tell you or anyone that information......

I just watched some video on professional pick pocketers and it gives a lot of pointers on how to avoid problems. However, it appears that most of these professionals work in groups and are very good at what they do by putting the victims at ease. And it appears it does not matter where you stash your money, these professionals are so good that they can get to it. :(

I am always worried now when people are too friendly especially when I do not know who they are even those I may have seen out and about in town.  There are so many people who moving into town and moving out of town so it is difficult to figure out exactly how trustworthy they are.

I guess a better question would be how to avoid people who do that for a living since they are always looking for a victim.

I have a gigantic purse that's usually about 10 pounds so it would take some real effort to grab it without me noticing

I stash it inside my wallet with my small purse across my shoulders.

I do not carry cash. I only carry a credit card most of the time, except for pocket change. :clover:

In my case, the question is "Where do you stash money when you are IN?"   :o :confused1: :moneymouth: :D I hid some cash over a year ago in my bedroom somewhere, I have no idea where haha!! It's a pretty small room too! I'd have to take everything out of the room one piece at a time to find it I think. Either that or get hypnotized!

I've heard of a lot of people keeping it in their shoes but doesn't seem like a comfy place considering you have to walk on it.

When I was in elementary school, our art teacher carried COINS in her socks...  :sad1:

She was one WEIRD woman...  :silly:
