Squirrel away (5)

I think it could be either:

stash

hoard

'squirrel away' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for stash that I've seen before include "Secret hoard" , "(Illegal) hoard" , "Stow; secret store" , "collection" , "Treasure trove" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Independent, the Penny Press, The New York Times, the USA Today, The Guardian, the LA Times and The Wall Street Journal.
