- lizzieExplorerEver since I lost the spare truck keys in the bottom of the dog food container I have been afraid to hide anything. It took three months to get down to the bottom of the can and I had already spent over $200 on a new set of keys. Like most, we don't carry much cash. I have a portfolio with copies of important papers that stays in the truck. Same for passports unless we have them on our person. We do have issues with what to do with computers, tablets, and cameras. lizzie
- Gene_GinnyExplorerI keep my extra cash in a large coffee can on the kitchen counter ...... right next to the rattlesnake food.
:R - cmeadeExplorerJust finished reading all seven pages on this post and got some good laughs!! I would jokingly ad my $.02 --- a hundred dollar bill taped around the barrel of my .40 cal Glock which is in the holster on my belt holding up my pants -- that is the best I could add to this thread.
- AmericalVetteExplorerI don't carry more than a hundred or so cash, and mostly use a debit card.
If I do have extra cash, It goes to my ex wife (and not by choice!):( - free_radicalExplorer

- travelnutzExplorer IIWe always carry from $200 to even $1000 each and several Credit cards on our persons. Most of the time the higher amounts are in an under our outer clothes nylon money belt around our waist. Can't be seen and easy to get to and only us knows it's there. In my wallet or her purse is usually under $200 and one credit card each when in or going to a suspect area. We have cash with us for any thing we want to buy that doesn't accept Credit cards. Never had any problems even it foreign countries or 3rd world countries. Having U.S. currency talks big as every vendor will bargin/barter much better when paying with greenbacks.
Ordered nearly all our RV's with a steel fireproof safe bolted directly to the frame secured with hardened tack welded carriage thru bolts up with the nuts inside the safe. Some, I'd mounted myself. In a fire with an RV, the floor near a corner away from propane lines etc remains the coolest area and an area so easy to keep even cooler by spraying water on it. Heat rises! - OzlanderExplorerI spread mine around, a dollar here, a dollar there, pretty soon it's all hid.
- starcraft69ExplorerRight along side my S&W on my hip
- down_homeExplorer III so want to reply but I'll be danged if anyone else knows where we hide the extra $2.33.
