That's not such a bad idea. Maybe I can put a few drops of Hoppes on those old dryer sheets and reuse them so my clothes smell like Hoppes right out of the dryer.
Hoppes scented dryer sheets? How about after shave smelling like Ole #9? Terrific ideas!

Back to the original question of “where are good hiding places”, I agree with TexasRedneck that these shouldn’t be shared in this forum as crooks could be watching. However I would suggest spending some time walking around your house looking for cracks and crevices where valuables can be hidden. The best hiding places are the ones that only you know about. Back in the 1800’s putting your cash in the mattress was a great idea until it became common knowledge. Find a place that no one would think of and keep it to yourself.
Gun safes are great and I have two small ones to lockup my hand guns when I have visitors (especially my nieces and nephews), but I currently don’t have it in my budget for a big safe for my long guns. I do have a great hiding place though that already existed in my home. When I go out of town I put my two shotguns and my rifle in there as they are of great value to me. (two of them are family heirlooms)
Take your time and walk around your house looking for places that even you haven’t thought of before. You’ll probably surprise yourself. Just remember to keep it to yourself. People talk and word gets around, just like the mattress idea from long ago.
