to share this INSANE life hack!!!!

[Tunotips]

Just leave the tin like that for a few minutes and then it’s ready to use.

what’s your favorite insane life hack? Post below!!!!!
(but please no fucking boring tips)

and I have n/c for this bc I don’t want anyone tracking me down via my sink

I don't think it's an 'insane life hack' @Tunotips but you did make me laugh name changing in case someone recognised your sink! 😂

Thanks for thinking of us though!

In her position surely she would have had someone else chew it for her, like she had someone else to wear her new shoes to break them in!

So are you going to explain what this life hack actually is? All I see is a tin being drained🤷‍♀️

OMG. Do you think this would work the other way round? So if my cat got weighed holding me, then I weighed myself I'd know how much my cat weighed?

Nah. Not buying it. Sounds too easy.

Life hacks? Pfft. More like scams. Scams, I tell you!

Do people really buy tuna in oil?

Now that is a useful life hack 😁

My ‘insane’ life hack is if someone is wearing a red flag on their person run for hills and never look back.

A much more helpful ‘top tip’ than using your sink to drain a can.

DUST!
Love this thread, really made me laugh and actually just slapped my thigh. And I've learnt a few things too.
Classics...?

May try this in the loo! My OH read where coca cola would shift it, there's now brown limescale welded to the bowl.

Olive oil preferably. I will buy tuna in oil if spring water isn’t available. I either drain it into my dog’s food bowl or in the food caddy.

so you scrape off the limescale with a penny??

If you want to know your weight - weigh yourself holding your cat. Then weigh your cat. Subtract the second figure from the first. That's how much you weigh!!

You're welcome.

I fucking LOVE this side of Mumsnet! 😆

Visiting friends in the new house they've just bought?

Keep them entertained by training your three-year-old to stare into an empty room and ask them "who is that sad little boy crying in the corner there?"

And one more from me:

Easily boost your self-esteem by looking at the people queueing in Greggs.

Liven up a boring salad by swapping the lettuce for bacon.

Life hack! worried about fuel bills this winter? Just put a jumper on.

In a similar vein, worried about elderly relatives and the increased rates of death during a heatwave? Just tell Doris to take her cardie off.

My top tip is buttering the cut surface of a loaf (after cutting the end crust off, obviously) before cutting each slice off. It's harder to butter once it's sliced. Or maybe that's just because I am really crap at cutting straight slices of bread.

I think you're not supposed to put bananas in the fridge because the gas they give off as they ripen causes other fruits to go off? Not that I've tried it.

Closing the blinds when the lawn needs cutting. Saved me loads of my spare time

I now have visions of my late father who could butter bread then slice it horizontally off the loaf with the precision of a surgeon and the now exposed surface was still parallel to the table, no wonky wedges of bread from him.

I like to mix it up a bit by also swapping out the cucumber for bread.

Drizzle with brown sauce instead of salad dressing.

😂

My potato (veg) peeler is brilliant for opening jars. If I push it up where the lid curves you can hear the air come out, the lid comes off effortlessly. It’s a really good, strong peeler that I’ve had since the 1990s. (The sound is the vacuum breaking, very satisfying).

Yes because I don’t need to worry about getting fat, and the consistency of spring water tuna gives tuna mayo a weird consistency.

haha! Was thinking the same.

OP - I thought you were going to share something life changing!

That sounds very right and proper, I shall try it at lunchtime.

If it's tuna in water don't drain it down the sink, pour it on your cats food, they love it
