    Vacuum seal it with a small steel plate I have to add some weight. Drop it in the water softener tank and put a bag of salt on top of it.

    That depends on whether I can separate the bills and keep the ones they don’t find, or if it’s an all or nothing system. There’s a loose floorboard in one room, so if it’s all or nothing, I’d lift that and chuck the package as far as possible under there, replace the board, then mess up multiple other places in the house.

    If they can be separated, there are 100 notes, and they’re individually going in every gap, crevase and hole I can find. Between the floor boards, under carpeting, in the gaps in the bottom of the couch, I have a stapler, so pop the bases loose on some chairs, then restaple them shut, tape them under floor level cupboards. I’d have to move fast, but their unlikely to find everything, so I’d be finding random $100 notes for ages afterwards, because there no way I’d remember everywhere I put them.

      I like this idea, there’s no way they’ll find them all. They’ll find some and you’ll still have a tidy profit

    Like I’d give away the best hiding spots. Nice try gestapo, you ain’t gonna catch me with anything.

    Give it to my youngest kid. She’ll put it somewhere where nobody can find it. Unfortunately this would also mean we can’t find it either.

    I have a cupboard filled with old papers, folders etc. I’m going to put it in a battered old envelope and chuck it in there. Hide it in plain sight. There’s so much shit in there it’ll take ages to sort, plus I’ll leave false clues other places.

      Yeah, if the searchers are only allowed to “look”, but not disassemble anything, the challenge is easy, as long as bills aren’t visible. If the searchers are allowed to tear my home apart, I’m handing over the 10k as soon as they arrive, and wishing them good day.

        Even then, I’m not sure 10k is enough for me to allow randoms in my house.

        I’d rather not lose random items to sticky fingers.

    Some stupid ideas:

    • Roll the bills and stuff them into a condom. Shove it up my ass. It might feel uncomfortable for the next couple of hours, and a few more hours after that, but hey, 10k USD, right?

    • I have a bunk bed that is made out of hollow metal tubes. Roll the bills, insert into a plastic bag and drop it into one of the vertical tubes holding the bed up. It should fall all the way down, with no way to see it unless you already know it has fallen inside it.

    • Put the bills (flat) inside a plastic ziploc bag and shove it inside my PC. I’ll insert it between my SSD, or underneath the motherboard.

    Of those ideas, I quite like the first two. Easiest to do is the second one, so that’s probably what I’d do.

      I think you are underestimating how thick the roll would be, unless you trained your ass very hard you won’t be able to shove it there. Second one sounds good!

        I was actually thinking “It’s just 100 × $100 bills, how thick can it be?” until I did the calculations just now. I found the value of 0.0043 in for the thickness of a 100 USD bill somewhere online and did the calculations.

        (10 000 USD) × (1 bill / 100 USD) × (0.0043 in / 1 bill) 
        = 0.430 in
        ≈ 1.0922 cm
        

        I greatly underestimated the thickness of a stack of 100 USD bills. At just over a centimeter thick, I doubt I can even roll using the short side (for a smaller circumference).

    Unbolt the toilets and lift them. There’s spaces in the base you could probably stuff more than 100 bills in each toilet. Bolt them back down again.

    Behind the laundry machine, where it can join the socks in the Lost Sock Dimension.

    In the innards of my antique sewing machine, which is currently hanging upside down under its sewing table. The table is covered in stuff.

    Behind the drawers of my locked filling cabinet.

    Put a vest on one of my cats and put it in one of the pockets. Lil buggers disappear into the mirror dimension when strangers come around.
