Banknotes reportedly in hidden store (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cache

'hidden store' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'banknotes reportedly' is the wordplay.
'banknotes' becomes 'cash' (I've seen this in another clue).
'reportedly' shows a homophone (sound like).
'cash' sounds like 'CACHE'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cache that I've seen before include "Hiding place for treasure etc" , "Secret store of valuables" , "Hidden store of things" , "Something hidden" , "Collection of hidden things" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
