If I put beer, Cool Whip, and vinegar on my hair, I'll have conditioned hair without any dandruff.
Handy tips!
:-)
Great tips. A great many of these products aren't available in the UK, but I'll try out the ones that are!
Great hints, but what gets elastoplast sticky plaster off fingers??
What scares me is the things that remove paint are also things we eat or drink. Eeeeuu.
Think I would like to see some of these tried first on someone I wasn't too fond of any way.
U wish someone had known about #23 when my Mom was Queen of the Rodeo. There were so many newspaper clippings about her. The few I have left are yellowed and torn.
I am going to try peanut butter and a coffee filter on the next scratched CD I get from NetFlix. If they complain I will send the complaint to you. ;-)
Okay Judy, you go first and let us know the results! :)
I'll try those things on my hair! Hope it doesn't start growing and shouting "Feed Me" like that plant on Little Shop of Horrors though ;-)
WD-40 does work on joints! I tried it on my toes once when they were cramping & it worked like a charm!
hum...guess I need to get some Pam, Colgate, Prep H for a variety of reasons, and lots of other products....just when i was trying to cut back....a word of caution however with putting mayo in your hair.....pain in the head to get it out.
A waste of perfectly good beer....
:)
I wish I had known about number 4 when my daughter was younger.
# 4 tests my credulity:)
That glue thing on the face? Sounds like something I might have done back in 2nd grade. Not confessing, exactly. Just speculating. LOL
Elmer's glue! All the money i have wasted on facial peels...I want it back!
A very useful list!
Falling through a ceiling eliminates migraines too. I highly recommend it.
i have to try the elmer's glue thing
