Just reading something at Consumerism Commentary, and the question popped into my head, "Who still keeps money under the mattress (or some similar hiding area)?"
I have a couple hundred, maybe three hundred at most, lying around in various places, but honestly, I only remember the location of a $20 bill. I put them there mainly because, well, I just needed someplace to put them, and they stayed there. Some of my cash has been stashed away since high school.
Do you hide cash away?

Chippingaway, I'm imagining a few duffle bags full of cash. You know if it's a decent amount of cash though, you should probably put it in a bank so it can earn interest...Just stating the obvious...lol
Hey shamedsteven, try and see if you can find a few rare coins in that pile...BTW, how do you fit that jar under your mattress?? :) JK...
I've got some money stashed in my dresser, it varies all the time and I don't think its ever been more than $300. Once I opened up a flashlight to change the batteries and found a $20 I had stashed inside it and forgot about.
I do stash some cash away just in case I need cash. There is something about having a roll of cash that gives me a little comfort. Sort of an immediate emergency fund for little things. I hardly use it but once in a while it comes in handy.
