I put them on my bedroom floor inside amazon boxes. To everybody else in my house, it looks like a mess that needs to get tidied up, so nobody every touches it.

Yeh I just have a big box that is next to all of the other random boxes in the basement

Inside suitcases, inside storage tubs, or literally inside Amazon boxes in our unfinished room in our basement that just look like more of the clutter that's already there.

Are you being sarcastic or did you really not read the OP at all?

trunk of your car

Inside coolers - we use our coolers a ton during the summer. In the fall, DH cleans them really well and we put them in the basement “to avoid animal damage.”
Also, luggage.
I hide DH’s small items in my work sock drawer and the big items in the kids’ rooms.

Suitcases. Bottom of hamper if they don’t do laundry. Among other clutter in the garage. Deliver to and keep at neighbor’s house or work.

We store our Christmas decorations in tubs. When the decorations go up, the gifts go into the tubs. My kids are none the wiser.

HAHAHA I tried my office, and just locking the door, until my 8 year old broke the lock - "just to see if Santa is real!!"

I got nothing.

I have a sneaking suspicion my kids will snoop. (I know I used to!) Looking for places that aren’t “the trunk of your car” (I drive an SUV and not only use the space daily, but I also wouldn’t feel comfortable leaving a ton of presents out in the open like that.)

Curious your tried and true hiding spots! Thanks!
