A dedicated tool created to cut through cardboard boxes, roughly $20-30. When you have gigantic boxes to break down, using a straightedge or knife isn't going to "cut" it. Saves a LOT of time for me as it's significantly faster to use.
Using cooking vinegar in place of liquid softener in the clothes washer to remove moldy / gym sock smell from the drum and clothes. Only need to apply once every few washes and is less than $1 worth of vinegar to do the trick. I just fill the softener compartment with it. I've spent a lot of money on products that claim to remove the smell, but vinegar has consistently done the trick.
If your car's AC also smells moldy / gym socky, you can buy a foam spray that's designed to remove it that you put into your AC vents for around $35 that will clear it up immediately. I've watched youtube videos suggesting lysol but it did not work out for me on two cars. This did.
- arkg98 5y agoCan you share the name of the tool for cardboard boxes? I would love to buy, I've damaged many surfaces trying to cut down a box using a box cutter.
- datavirtue 5y agoI used to be a kitchen manager and we would break down hundreds of boxes in addition to our regular duties. I would knuckle-punch (frog?) the tape, rip the flaps, and fold a box in one motion. These would be stacked in the recycling dumpster. What is the knife used for?
- taeric 5y agoCutting can save a bit of the space that the fold adds to the stack. If you don't need the extra space, probably not worth the effort. Is also nice if you are dealing with mixed sizes of boxes. Cut them to roughly the same size for stacking. (Not the op, so I could have the wrong motives...)
- banana_giraffe 5y agoI got one called "Worx ZipSnip Cordless". Pretty happy with it.
- brutus1213 5y agoI got one too and love it. CANARY Corrugated Cardboard Cutter from Amazon.
- tmaly 5y agowhat type of vinegar do you use on laundry? For cars, sometimes it is as easy as changing the cabin air filter.
- SAI_Peregrinus 5y agoI'm not them, but I use distilled white vinegar. You just want mild acetic acid with no contaminants.
- mrfusion 5y agoVinegar works great on gym clothes! I just discovered that too.
