You can store items in a house you have bought.

Houses are the only safe place (your houses mind you), everything else is fair game for the NPCs.

There's a good mod that Fable linked to as well here, that gives you storage in every guild, but that's just a chest per guild. Oh and be careful not to put all your stuff in one place even in your house, ie a lot of items of the same kind seem to trigger a bug of a sort in some people, that makes those items disappear.

I leave my items near shops, people walk over them sometime but noone ever touches it, everything is still there several days later.

I have not yet tried to store stuff long-term. But I dump stuff in chests at night, when I am bringing in several loads of stuff from adventuring, then take it from the chest to the shops when they open.
A house is what I want, but houses tend to be expensive...

Don't count on this working. The game does respawning sweeps periodically of each city.

can i just confirm with those that have tried it, can you use any item in your house to safely store stuff or do you specifically need to buy a storage area in your house and only store stuff in the provided chest?

Just dump them on the floor, I do it, even though my Skingrad house is totally equiped. The display cases are useless, so I just pile it where I am. Though as I've said I do avoid large groupings of items, especially if we are speaking about the same kind of items.
