I had some cash in my glove compartment and then asked myself why my emergency cash only totalled five dollars...
So I was thinking of stashing a hundred dollars somewhere in the car where it wouldn't be so obvious to a burglar but also not tempt a mechanic.
Honestly I could just put it in a paper bag and throw it my trunk because it's so full of other stuff it wouldn't get noticed at all. But to be more secretive I was thinking about taping it up under the seat or inside a fuse compartment. Any ideas?

I tried to get a screengrab of the contraband scene involving a Porsche in the movie Big Chill, but my Google images search failed me...

Under the carpet in the trunk area?

Well my idea only works while you're in the 718.......how about your pockets? Or better yet just carry a credit card.

Now this scheme is not tied to midnight runs on the US-Mexican border is it?

Emergency cash, why just for the car?

What if you need it when away from the car?

Problem solved, you simply need a $100 bill, rolled as tightly as you can get it, and a small amount of KY jelly.

A $100 bill is not very effective in an emergency. They are difficult to spend. I'd suggest five $20 bills instead. Small ziploc bag taped under the seat. BOOM. Problem solved. Why make this more difficult than it needs too?

For me cash is dead so would never be my concern but I guess different strokes for different folks.

Stick a couple bills inside the owners manual..


No one ever looks at them

Good idea for emergency cash.

And there are many places that do not accept cards, and some are my favorites. Vincent's Pizza in Pittsburgh, Salt Lick in Austin. Love those places.

We're obviously running out of topics on this forum. lol


How about putting some cash in one of the cupholders? The are worthless otherwise.

CASHholders!!


Finally we found out what they are!

I've got the ideal spot...no way anyone would look there...however, I don't want to divulge and take a chance someone reading this forum would rip me off...

Salt Lick in Austin.

Not gonna hate too hard, but as far as Central Texas BBQ goes, Salt Lick is a definite second or third-tier choice.

Next time you're in town, try Louie Mueller, La BBQ, Terry Black's, or one of the Lockhart joints (Kreuz, Black's, or Smitty's)

My life will only get better!! Thanks for the tip! I hope they only take cash.

This man knows his Texas barbecue ... though Lockhart has become, IMHO, second tier since it began franchising itself ... Franklin's is my Austin pick. Gotta get there early on a Friday, though ...

Anyway: I have the perfect stash place on our cars. Anywhere revealed by the Soundaktor disconnection thread here. Seriously: it looks much, much harder to remove than it actually is ...

... though a close second place would be one of the cubbies available in the frunk.

I put all my cash into the car.. before they gave me the keys.

The banks here don't like people carrying cash--'cause they don't get their cut from every purchase that way.:laugh:

It is a question of what kind of mugger do you prefer...> Your neighborhood mugger prefers cash...

Under the tire inflator next to the battery. Gotta admit the owners manual is a good idea.
