Additional suggestions welcomed.
OLD telephone directories make ideal personal address
books. Simply cross out the names and address of
people you don't know.
WHEN reading a book, try tearing out the pages as you
read them. This saves the expense of buying a
bookmark, and the pages can later be used for shopping
lists.
FOOL other drivers into thinking you have an expensive
car phone by holding an old TV or video remote control
up to your ear and occasionally swerving across the
road and mounting the curb.
DRILL a one inch diameter hole in your refrigerator
door. This will allow you to check that the light goes
off when the door is closed.
SMELL gas? Locate the suspected leak by striking an
ordinary match in every room in the house until a loud
explosion reveals the source of the escaping gas.
AVOID parking tickets by leaving your windshield
wipers turned to 'fast wipe' whenever you leave your
car parked illegally.
TAKE your trash can to the supermarket with you so
that you can see which items you have recently run out of.
NO TIME for a bath? Wrap yourself in masking tape and
remove the dirt by simply peeling it off.
EXPENSIVE hair gels are a con. Marmalade is a much
cheaper alternative, but beware of bees in the summer.
AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF while clumsily slicing
vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while
you chop away.
