Life Hacks You Didn’t Know You Needed, But Won’t Be Able To Live Without

It's amazing thinking that just by tweaking little things, it can make your life a whole lot easier.

1.

Save money on vegetables by buying them in bulk, cutting them up, and then freezing them. We know veggies expire fast. By freezing them, they'll last a lot longer.

2.

To create more storage in your kitchen cabinets, mount towel racks on the side of the cabinet doors. Store all of your pan and pot lids here.

3.

Cut slits into the slides of your band-aid for pesky finger cuts. This method will prevent the bandages from always slipping off.

5.

Create a medical card with all your medical info on it and keep it somewhere visible in your wallet. This is especially great for people who may have certain allergies or medication needs. It may even save your life one day.

6.

For the perfect french tip, paint over a big rubberband. Or you can use tape as well!

7.

Cook two pizzas at the same time by cutting each one in half and placing them on each side of the pan. Great for when you have a lot of people with you.

8.

Slip a long piece of paper into a tube of chips so that when you tip the tube over, the chips have something to lay on top of. No more crumbs at the end. No more sticking your arm all the way into the bottom of the tube.

9.

Slice a piece of a mini pint of ice cream and place it between two large cookies for a super neat ice cream sandwich! Let's take a moment to thank the genius who came up with this.
