10 Everyday Things You're Probably Doing the Hard Way

10. Untie the Delivery Bag Knot
9. Slice Tomatoes - If your tomato slices tend to be mushy or mangled, a dull knife may be the culprit
8. Take Scratches Out of Furniture - A quick fix for scratched wood is as close as the kitchen.
7. Find Studs - The magnets on your fridge can do double duty as stud finders.
6. Tie Your Shoes - By simply reversing the direction of one lace-tying step, you'll create a more stable knot.
5. Clean the Microwave - Elbow grease will no longer be required for microwave cleaning jobs
4. Save Money - Many employers will allow you to split your direct deposit, so you can divert funds to a savings account each paycheck without even thinking about it.
3. Open Blister Packs - The blister packs that many electronics come packaged in are the cause of many cut fingers and much frustration.
2. Prevent Blisters - Antiperspirant can prevent blisters such as this by reducing friction on your feet.
1. Figure Out How Much to Tip - Imagine the pre-tax total on a bill is $15.50, a 15 percent tip is $2.33, and a 20 percent tip is $3.10.
