A simple yet effective tip: switch to rechargeable batteries. Americans throw away about 3 billion batteries per year, a number that can be significantly reduced. Cheap batteries might seem like a money-saving option, but they don’t last long, and you’ll end up spending more on replacements. Rechargeable batteries are a bit more expensive initially, but they last much longer and save you money in the long run.<\/p>\n

Ever wondered where your missing socks and small garments have gone? They might have fallen behind or beside your washer or dryer. To avoid this, use foam pipe insulation! Simply cut a foam pipe to the length of your washer or dryer and place it in the gap between the appliance and the wall. No more lost laundry!<\/p>\n

Kitchen drawers can become cluttered and chaotic, making it difficult to find utensils. A drawer organizer is a perfect solution to keep everything in order. However, the organizer might not fit the drawer perfectly, causing it to shift when the drawer opens or closes. To solve this issue, use a pool noodle! Measure the space between the end of the organizer and the end of the drawer, cut the noodle to size, and place it in the gap. Your organizer will stay in place, keeping your utensils organized.<\/p>\n
