I'm a mum and I have an easy way to keep valuables safe when I’m on holiday – trust me, no-one will ever find them | The Sun

IF you are going on holiday soon, we’ve got the perfect hack for you.

Spending a day at the beach or the pool is all fun and games until you realise you have nowhere safe to put your valuables. 



Well, fear not, one mum has come to the rescue and shared her simple, yet genius hack for keeping valuables safe.

And although this hack works great when you’re by the pool, this can be used anywhere – for storing items in your hotel room if there isn’t a safe, or even for keeping your precious items safe in your own home.

No-one will ever be able to find your things thanks to this trick.

A mum to three girls, known on TikTok as ‘oxleyfamily3’, took to the social media platform to share her ‘perfect hack’.

The mum puts the items in the nappy and wraps it up, disguising the valuables as a dirty nappy.
