Stabilize Unsteady Furniture Using Just a Penny

Is your table or bench rocking back and forth and a trip to the hardware store is out of the question? Don’t fret, your spare change can come to the rescue! By strategically placing a coin under your shaky furniture, you can provide a quick, makeshift shim. Secure the coin with some hot glue to the area that’s causing trouble, layering more coins if necessary. This inexpensive solution is perfect for when you need a quick fix, as coins are readily available in various thicknesses and won’t break the bank!

This Ingenious Lip Balm Container Trick Will Ensure You Never Misplace Your Money Again

Concerned about your cash while hitting the beach? Try this nifty trick. Snag an empty lip balm tube and yank out the mechanism that propels the balm upward. Next, snugly roll your cash into a compact tube that slides right into the container, leaving a bit of the bill peeking out for easy access.

Depending on the thickness of your bills and the dimensions of the lip balm container, you may have to fold the cash in half before neatly rolling it. Bear in mind, afterwards, using the container for its intended purpose isn’t recommended as traces of money could remain, which certainly won’t offer any sun protection for your lips!
