Below are a bunch of solutions that were sent to me for blog by my fans and supporters, basically my family. Or really, just my family.
*Pack boxes with old plastic bags
You've probably got a stash of plastic bags somewhere in your house. Use them to cushion items your mailing or to fill in empty space in boxes. It's an free alternative to pricey bubble-wrap—just don't try this with fragile items.
*Remove crayon marks with WD-40
The next time your little one goes wild writing on your walls, don't stress! Instead pull out WD-40. This household product, that you usually use to stop squeaky hinges, also works brilliantly in removing crayon marks from most surfaces. Simple spray and wipe crayon right off. (You may also want to wipe surface with a soapy rag to remove any oil residue.)
*Clean your toilet with Alka Seltzer
So you're having friends for dinner in 20 minutes, and you've just noticed your grimy toilet? No worries, drop in a couple of tablets Alka Seltzer, leave for ten minutes then easily wipe scum away! The fizzing action of Alka Seltzer works as a powerful cleaning agent, so you don't have to get your hands dirty.
*Use dryer sheets to freshen stinky shoes
Good News: You're making good on your promise to hit the gym every day. Bad news: You're running shoes and gym bag smell to high heaven!
Until you can give them a good wash this weekend, air out those bad boys by stuffing dryer sheets in them and leaving over night. The sheets will absorb the odor so you can hit the gym tomorrow, odor free!
Just in time for the holidays!

| Now all the tubes I save have another purpose.... My roommates hate this |
 |
| I usually colored my keys with permanent marker but after a while it would rub off, so this was a long term solution. |
 |
| Don't know about this one, but it's worth a shot. |
 |
| YES YES YES This completely and totally works! My nails always get destroyed trying to open the ring, so I was very excited about this one! |
