Hey Pandas, You Have 5 Minutes To Hide A Paperclip In Your Home. A Detective Will Have 24 Hours To Find It. You Get $10,000 If He Doesn't. Where Do You Hide It?

If my husband was the detective I put out in plain sight. He'd never find it.

Otherwise top of the bedroom door frame.

If the detective only has one shot at saying, "this is the hidden paperclip," I'd put it a container of identical paper clips.

Otherwise, I'd probably tape it under that recess behind the kitchen sink. It's hard as hell to see or reach up there when there's a leak. As long as the detective isn't allowed to remove my plumbing fixtures, I should be winning some money.

Inside a sock, then wash it and dry it. The sock fairies will steal it and it will never be seen again.

Or the bottom of my purse. When something goes in, it never comes back out. 😂

I unfold it so it's straight and push it through one of the thumbtack holes in the drywall.

Up my chimney

I would anesthetize the detective as soon as he entered my house and surgically implant the paper clip in his stomach along with some very high fiber food. Throughout the 24 hours he would feel the need to use the bathroom more and more. Every time they asked I would say No. Finally, during the 23rd hour I would say, “Oh, OK. You can use the bathroom.” The detective would unknowingly deposit the paper clip into my house right before they were about to win and leave the house with it. Then I would use the money to start a school for detectives to train them in techniques on how to avoid being unknowingly anesthetized. Cash cow.

Easy, I swallow it.

I break it into lots of pieces and hide the little bits and pieces around. If that isn't allowed I will put in the couch's hole, nothing will be found in there.

Take the plug off an appliance, straighten the paper clip, slide the paper clip inside the wire casing of the appliance cord, replace plug, collect money.

Unfold it and put it in my chandelier

I would hide it in an enormous box of paper clips.

Unfold it, put it in one my books (I have a lot).

I would carefully lift one of the houseplants out of its pot, stick the straightened paperclip through into the soil partway down pushing it in far enough neither end is visible, then repot the plant and water well enough to disguise any soil disturbance. Oh, and then quickly wipe up any spilt soil and spend the rest of the five minutes watering the other plants so it doesn't look odd that this one has been watered.
Then in the last minute, flush the toilet so the detective hears the cistern re-filling when they come in, so wastes at least some of their time thinking I've flushed it.

I would straighten it out, cut the tiniest hole in the wall-to-wall carpeting, near the tacks (so a metal detector wouldn’t pick it up), and push the paper clip through so it was lying against the subflooring. The detective could be walking over it all night long and never notice.

I would unfold the paper clip, twist it into the shape of a bobby pin, and stick it in my hair.

That depends. Is it a single specific paperclip that says "Kilroy was here" in miniscule writing and glows in the dark, or any old paperclip?

Tape it to the top of my ceiling fan, then leave the fan on for the rest of the day.

Slide into stick of butter, run finger over hole to hide, rewrap stick & replace in box with other sticks.

Am I allowed to carry it on me personally? Easy then - Put it into my luna cup and in it goes! Will take me less than 30 seconds to hide it, cannot fall out by mistake and I am quite sure they are not allowed to search me there without a very good reason and a warrant. I doubt that would be possible within 24 hours. And no, I am not worried about leaving the cup inside for 24 hours. Metal detector? Yeah, piercings, you know... Where can I collect my money?
