That's one way of dealing with it. However, the opposing view of a friend is: they intentionally leave some inexpensive jewelry and a few hundred dollars in what they hope will be the first place they look. They hope that the crook feels they have all that is to be had from the house and leave. To them, this is preferable to having the crooks ransack their house looking for their hiding place. I tend to agree.
