Would this be an effective way to temporarily store objects? f = Instance.new("Folder") v = Instance.new("StringValue",f) v.Value = "This is a text" function getFolder() return f end Would this allow me to have a folder of various things floating outside the game, or is there a stipulation of which I am not yet aware?

when something is nil they still take up data space but you just cant see them

'Would this allow me to have a folder of various things floating outside the game' Yes, but you do this all the time. Like creating tables and strings and all that stuff :)
