I came up with idea 3 years ago. I wanted something to put snacks in, but still hide something in it.

It's a perfect way to hide money or gift cards in if you want ot leave money in your car or purse. No one would ever expect money to be in a can of chips, especially if they open the can and just see chips!

Supplies

Pringle's can, not a large one [ make sure you use an unopened Pringle can ]

White or purple glue stick

Empty apple sauce cup [ You can also use a fruit cup ]

Cleaning the Pringle Can

Carefully peel away the paper cover, but don't throw it away you'll be needing it for another step.

Take all the Pringles out of the can and set a quarter of the pringles to the side.

Get a damp paper towel and clean the inside of the Pringle can.

Gluing the Paper Cover to the Lid

Grab the glue stick and rub it around the inside of the lid.

Take the paper cover and place the Pringle's logo on the glue part.

Press down on the paper cover until it's nice and smooth.

I placed another Pringle can on the lid so the paper cover would stay on the lid while the glue is drying.

Being Sneaky! :)

Take some paper money or gift cards and place them at the bottom of the Pringle can.

I wouldn't suggest putting change or anything that might make noise in the bottom, because if someone shook it, it would make a lot of noise and the person would know something's in there.

Putting the Pringles Back in the Can

Put the appe sauce container in the Pingle's can [ it won't go in all the way, but it's suppose to be like that ].

Put some of the Pringles back in the apple sauce cantainer and put the lid on.

Finished!
