    I keep a set of funnels in my car for pouring fluids, like oil, windshield wiper fluid, etc..., without making a huge mess.

    OMG THANK YOU for the shoe drying hack! I am a bartender/server and I have to wear good quality sneakers with arch support being on my feet all day.
    When filling/transporting 🍺 from the tap it drips or splashes on my shoes at least a few times a week, needless to say I wash my shoes A LOT (our washer and dryer are hidden away in our living room area)
    I have a son with Autism that gets sensory overload from loud noises, so THANK YOU for passing along the information! 🥰
    This is a game changer for me!

    I have been dusting with a sock my entire life. My mom taught us it’s the easiest way. Spray it with pledge and go. No streaks 😍

    Jamie I love those cupcakes. They freeze up so nicely. Try a spice cake mix with your pumpkin 👍🏻. But I go add an extra ingredient. Add a hand full of white chocolate chips. ( chocolate chips are good with the chocolate cupcakes).

    Another idea for the pancake batter is to fry as many pancakes as it makes and freeze the leftovers - just microwave for a quick breakfast later

    Awesome hack on the gel alcohol ice packs! I was SO close to ordering a couple of reusable ice packs from Amazon. I am having hip surgery in 2 weeks and I will need to ice it. Perfect timing

    • @nellarbean8941
      @nellarbean8941 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I have made and used the ice packs for years....2 very simple things I would like to add..I put a couple drops of blue food coloring in the bag with the water and rubbing alcohol..that way no mistakes can happen. Also I put my ice pack bag inside of a second bag. It saves a possible mess if the pack bag leaks.

    Temu carries a splatter cover for the microwave that is magnetic! It sits perfectly in the top and you just drop it down to use. Even if you don't pull it down it still helps keep mess to a minimum!

  • @tammyscraftspace
    @tammyscraftspace ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Hi Jamie, love watching your videos, so many great ideas. I have a microwave plate cover that has a magnet in the top of it and it sticks to the inside top of the microwave. You should try putting a magnet on yours, it keeps it off your counters and is always ready for use. Have a great day.

  • @kimmclaren6410
    @kimmclaren6410 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Thanks for the many terrific hacks! Im going to use the foil bunch for scrubbing baking sheet pans. Another great use of Dollar Tree Aluminum Foil is to take a 12"-18" piece of foil and crumple it up and throw into the dryer with your next load. It'll reduce static cling with the side benefit of no intense scents that some people can't tolerate when using dryer sheets.

  • @ericaterrones16

    We use the milk pouring container for pancake 🥞 mix too! It’s great for camping!

  • @missoctober8859
    @missoctober8859 ปีที่แล้ว

    My mom had one of those sponges on a stick back in the 80s.
    I love those little "shower cap" covers! I can never find them anywhere here in my town except for Dollar Tree.

  • @cathycoryell2351
    @cathycoryell2351 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fresh ideas! I've used the cabinet towel bar for holding Veggie wash, and spray bottles for spot cleaning, daily cleaners on inside cabinet doors. Mine were AMZ.

  • @dreamingmusicgal
    @dreamingmusicgal ปีที่แล้ว

    Jamie, Just found your channel... I have another life hack for you with the aluminum foil take a good size piece and make a tight palm size ball and use them as dryer balls. It serves many purposes 1. It's takes away static so you don't get them snaps, 2. It also will help with keeping things separated a little better for faster drying. 3. It helps with collecting pet hairs as well. And I'm sure there are many other ways it's good for as well. Blessings, Sherry

    I'm a foodie, so I loved the muffin mix and the stuffing mix ideas. For the muffins, I will add some protein powder as well, for a great 'healthy' breakfast! I love your presentation. You always do such a great job presenting whatever it is you are talking about.

  • @debbiegordon7622
    @debbiegordon7622 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Good evening Jamie..great hacks.. Hello Otis..❤️ I use those funnels when I put gasoline in my riding lawnmower because the tank is in a tight spot and if I didn't have it the gas would go everywhere..works great .You can use hand sanitizer to De ice frozen locks on your car, house, padlocks etc works amazing and if you don't have rock salt for steps use hand sanitizer or alcohol works great

  • @myrabruso3106

    I use those nobby hand mitts as dusters in my home and a paint brush as a duster for knick knacks.

    Those mesh bags are also good for the beach when you pack up and the sand will fall through.

  • @kathyyarbrough8656
    @kathyyarbrough8656 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Try a spice cake mix and pumpkin! I put them in a mini muffin pan. A perfect fall snack with a little cream cheese. Yum!

    Hello Jamie. Thank you for sharing these hacks. I'm going to try that meatloaf. Wanted to share a hack with you and your viewers. I suffered and I do mean suffered with a herniated disc in my neck several years ago. I tried the alcohol ice pack hack then but what I liked even better was freezing Dawn dish soap in a Ziploc bag. It has more of a gel like texture. I would recommend double bagging them though. If it starts to leak, just add another Ziploc bag...works great, trust me I know.

  • @Nesie1965
    @Nesie1965 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I would use the car duster on my blinds. The stuffing in meatloaf is amazing....I learned it through WW years and years ago....I do onion, bell pepper, an egg, cheddar cheese, 1lb ground beef and a lb of JD sausage. It makes about 3 small loaves....I freeze 2 aftter cooking for later....it's nice having only one mess. My son absolutely loves it. I made him one to take home to eat for dinner....He had his girl friend sat there and ate it, out of he foil wrapper, at my house... Piggies!!! LOL! I also will use muffin tins to make them...great for portion control.

    I love the microwave cover that I have. Yes, it is very easy to clean. It also helps keep the moisture in the food being heated because the steam created from heating is kept inside the cover.

    New subscriber here Jamie. Don’t know why I haven’t subscribed before as I used to watch you but never mind, I’ve subscribed now. Thanks for all the hacks, there was some good ones in there, I probably already do a lot of them but it’s good to see them altogether and get them all fresh in my mind, which doesn’t work as well as it used to anymore. I love the pool noodle hack, why I’ve never thought of that I don’t know but it’s going to be great for filling the watering can cos neither my daughter nor I can lift much and we have a lot of plants on our balcony. Thank you for sharing all your great hacks with everyone.

    I've also noticed that I seem to have accumulated a ton of cleaning products. Probably since the end of 2019. It seems we were always getting them every time we went to the store.😮 I'm also been trying to declutter, because as you said, it literally weighs you down.
    Thanks for sharing this video.

    I use the funnels. For all kinds of things. They are so handy. I have been looking for the paper towel holder ever since I first seen someone haul them. I have to start thinking outside of the box more often. You shown some that I really like and going to start trying.

    9:55 _Same_ issue here... *BRILLIANT tip❣* 🥞
    Yummy muffin recipe; I actually think I presently have those ingredients in my cabinet! It also fits nicely with the B&J's Cherry Garcia 🍨 presently in my freezer.🥰
    Those Surefresh coverups are actually good shower caps, they have a more comfortable fit than many of those sold specifically as 🚿 caps, and they offer the same protection. I'm going to share that windshield wiper blade sharpening tip with my mom and 3 friends! And yes, AromaGuru Brand is 🔥.
    I enjoyed _all_ of your tips, which are fantastic and so well-rounded; I just highlighted a few. I love your energy/spirit and humor, you're helpful and warm and relatable, which is so lovely for humanity.
