A hiding place for money, say (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cache

'a hiding place' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'money say' is the wordplay.
'money' becomes 'cash' (cash is a type of money).
'say' shows a homophone (sound like).
'cash' is a homophone of 'CACHE'.

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for cache that I've seen before include "Hidden store of things" , "Put away" , "Hiding place for treasure etc" , "Treasury" , "Hiding place for treasure or store" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
