Reply With QuoteIf you have blood on your clothes soak then in cold water for a few hours prior to washing....hey presto its gone!
To get chewing gum off clothes stick them in the freezer and then pick it off when it has frozen....works every time!
I thought that I would start a thread to spread all those invaluable bits of information that you seem to know but nobody seems to hear. All the time-saving tips around the house etc.
I shall start:
To stop the salt from soaking up water in the salt cellar and sticking together, place a few rice grains in with the salt and the salt will flow freely.
When using superglue, keep some nail varnish remover handy incase the glue sticks to your hand.

I have tried that a few times and it never works for me.Originally Posted by DD+
Am I missing something?
When your dog is sick, use poop bags to pick it up, it hides the smell.
Also
Use fragranced nappy bags for poo bags, it works out slightly cheaper and masks the doggy poo smell when you are try to find a bin.
NEVER eat yellow snow.
It really does need to be frozen hard!I have tried that a few times and it never works for me.perhaps we have different fabrics...normally works on my sons school uniform tho
If your shower/bath plughole is getting slow to drain. Get some cheap 'immac' hair remover rip-off cream from a pikey shop and leave it in the drain overnight. Next time you use the bath/shower the plughole will be completely clear of hair!
Nasty problem, easy solution

On the 'Where are you going this weekend?' threads, always put your name in an option that you know you will not be attending, so that all your stalkers go to the wrong place.

Not only a great tip Trouble, but you've just reminded me I broke a glass on the worktop yesterday, and forgot to clean up the tiny bits!
An anonymous numpty scrawled the delivery address on our new back door with a marker pen,... after the protective plastic had been removed. Toothpaste removed it. But if you try this trick on countertops, beware: it can dull the shine.
Instead of buying expensive smoke alarms simply fill balloons with water and hang them from the ceiling. Then cover the floor with air-filled balloons, each with a drawing pin stuck to the top. In the event of a fire the temperature will cause the air- filled balloons to rise up from the floor, and the pins will burst the water-filled balloons, thus extinguishing the fire. Probably.
If you bat your eyelids at a fireman (or show him your pension card) they give you free smoke alarms. And put it up for you!
