This was in the April Reader's Digest in an article "How to Hide Anything"
They really managed to misrepresent the whole thing.
*Your Most Prized Possessions
*If you want a fun outdoor hiding place for your valuables without the risk
of forgetting where you hid them, use a GPS device to save the coordinates
(it's called geocaching). Looking to give your heirs some fun after you're
gone? Include the coordinates to a sentimental stash in your will, or lead
your beneficiaries on a treasure hunt by supplying a series of coordinates
to various things you've stowed in different locations. Never hide anything
too valuable, though. Plastic film canisters, Tupperware containers, and
especially ammo boxes (available at Army-Navy stores) offer the best weather
protection. Go to geocaching.com <http://www.geocaching.com/> to learn more.
