Drill a hole through a bar of soap and hang it above your workbench. Run long screws across the soap before you drive them. They’ll smoothly penetrate the wood without stripping the screw head.

TIP OF THE DAY: For any jewelry where the chain is all tangled, place the piece on a flat surface and sprinkle baby powder over the top. Use a pin to gently pull it apart.

If you’re a frequent Target clearance shopper, pay attention to certain numbers on the tag. At the top right of the tag, you’ll see the percentage of markdown for the item. In the image above, the item is marked down 30%. If you look at the price and it ends with an 8, the item will be marked down again so you might be able to return and snag it at a lower price. If the number ends with a 4, buy your clearance item because it won’t go down anymore.
Want to know which days the markdowns happen?
Monday: Kids Clothing, Stationery, Office Supplies, Gift Wrap and Electronics
Tuesday: Women’s Clothing and Domestics
Wednesday: Men’s Clothing, Toys and Health & Beauty
Thursday: Intimates, Shoes and Housewares

Whether you have company arriving or you just want to protect yourself during your airhead forgetful moments, hide a key. It’s for the best.
Don’t place one under the mat or in the plant or in a fake rock near the door. We all know it’s there. Get crafty so YOU are the only one who knows it’s there.
