Where to hide a secret camera

anniemf2508

So a little bit of background, for the last year or so food has been going missing from my kitchen late at night and non one will own up to eating it.
I'm getting fed up with it as some mornings i come down and theres no bread left even tho when i've gone to bed theres been enough for breakfast and probably enough for lunch left.

My husband is pretty adamant it isn't him...hes a coeliac so i think we'd know if it was him as most of the food that goes missing has gluten in. I'm pretty sure its not me, my son couldn't reach alot of the stuff so it comes down to my daughter, but she denies it too, although she does have history of sleep walking so wondering whether it is an escalation of this.

So to get to the point i've bought a mini secret camera and am trying to work out the best way to hide. If anyone has any good ideas, that'd be great

Don't. Set it up in plain sight and tell everyone its there and that you will catch whomsoever is doing it as a result. It will stop one way or the other and you will have achieved your objective.

actually I wouldnt bother hiding it...I'd make light of the fact that it would be good to know whos having a midnight feast and put it up with the full knowledge of everyone.

That way you can involve everyone and hopefully not make it appear that a particular person is commiting a "crime"...and therefore that wont make them feel spied upon

Eh? are you for real?
Is it not everyones food, and everyones kitchen?
Seriously, spying on your family because you've ran out of bread for breakfast?

A bit harsh Olias. I think it's more of a curiosity thing, and to check if her DD is "sleep eating", rather than spying on people out of rage that her food is getting eaten!

Is it really possible to eat several slices of bread in your sleep? (I have no idea so it may be possible however unlikely it sounds)

If you suspect it's your daughter sleepeating there's no need to hide it, just leave it out on the side. I'm sure she's a curious as you.

If the eating stops, well, you know she wasn't sleepeating after all, just hungry in the night and frightened to tell you she ate all the breakfast bread.

it isn't just bread....when they eat all the food that was reserved for packing up id really like to know who it is.
And i can only eat bread for breakfast due to a fair few allergies, so if there is no bread when i get up i go hungry.

Agree with the 'making light of it' recommendations above but if you are going to try to hide it covertly then it will depend on the rooms layout, the limited light at night - assuming the mystery bread eater isn't turning on the main overhead lights - and whether this camera will need a live power source overnight.

Hubby took a sleeping tablet for a while and he would eat loads without knowing he was doing it, he could have eaten several slices of bread easy. Made him overweight though but he's come off them now and slimmed down.

I knew he was doing it because he woke me up, and l could have a conversation with him at the time, but he remembered nothing the next day. He did some odd things whilst on that drug, gave us a laugh!
