To ask what the most BRILLIANT advice/suggestion you've seen on here is?

[SpikySausage]

Inspired by the other thread with a similar title!

Maybe not advice/suggestion as such, but I wouldn't have got my Mirena coil had I not been persuaded by the balance of views on here and enough positive feedback that it could work out well. It has been lifechanging, I wish I had done it 20 years ago, I could have avoided years of pain.

My new one is tretinoin. It's only been a few weeks but I already think I will be using this for the rest of my life. Why have I spent so much money on expensive and less efficacious creams?

Without wanting to control the direction of the thread, I wasn't thinking of LTB type advice. More immediately implementable things that someone could try today! (Although MN has definitely educated me in matters such as 'the script', narcissism, emotional abuse, and trans/gender critical matters!)

And also for meal plans. Tell it how many days, any dietary requirements or preferences, and what sort of thing you want (e.g., family meals, low fat, quick and easy, impressive, etc) and it'll suggest a menu.

but it has the advantage in one way in that like the borg from startrek it can use many sources at once, where as with the average user its only one type of info they have etc

They have aready been mentioned but Mounjaro and Tret for me too. Both have had such a significant impact on my self esteem and, in the case of MJ, my health.

I think my next mumsnet rabbit hole will be the menopause. Maybe mounjaro after that if the menopause causes any weight gain!

But first, I need to stop procrastinating on choosing/starting the collagen supplements mumsnetters are sure I need.

Don’t put it down, put it away. Best advice ever for a tidy home

2 duvets instead of superking - so much easier to change and tortilla-sleeping partner does not leave the other one without.

Relationships board, I agree, would have been invaluable when I was younger. They all would have told me that the 'love of my life' was an abusive narcissist.

I never knew this. I’m going upstairs right now to try this out! Thanks!

Pensions! MN has encouraged me to get much more to grips with understanding my pension(s) and ensuring I’m saving for the future I want.

I've tried tret but couldn't see much difference, what did it do for you?

Not to be scared of investing or think it is only for wealthy people and to go ahead and open a Stocks and Shares ISA. Five years on it's been a great decision for my long term savings.

Use my quick spray mop to clean kitchen cupboards and bathroom tiles really quickly and easily. Just spray, mop the tiled walls/cabinets and then put the cloth in the wash. I don't know why I didn't think of it earlier!

I think Claude is better than chatgpt, especially getting the tone of your requests.

ive not heard of that one, ive also used co pilot.

ive been watching the show billions and its been quite excellent and its fairly easy to learn yourself about the stock market , its mainly when the maths is complex that its omg

Maybe they're all the same really but I find I get on with Claude better! We get into good chats about the meaning of life 😂

i tryed better ways to control society to prevent people being criminals chat via chatgpt and it kept trying to offer different spins on why people are the way they are

Great idea for a thread!

My children were too old for me (and them!) to have personally benefited from some one pointing out that baby vests and baby gros can be stretched over the baby's shoulders downwards in the event of a poonami. But I past this onto to a young friend who has just had a baby and she was very grateful.

I'm not on mounjaro but a friend has just started. We were on a day out and she mentioned it so I told her about the golden dose, which I'd learned about from here. She immediately phoned her DP to rescue the syringe out of the sharps bin as she didn't know anything about it, and was very grateful.

That you don't need to attend every argument you are invited to.

To take a heated blanket camping- not much of a camper myself but I thought it was a genius idea and share it with anyone I know going camping!

That grouting pens are amazing for quickly making your bathroom look better and are very therapeutic to apply. It's a very zen experience with pleasing visual results. And lasts quite a long time.

Thank you!!

And do the poppers on the cover run along the bottom?

Did it work?

@murasaki you mean the pen, not needle? If the latter, tell her also to get extra needles or an insuline syringe and not re-use the used ones fished out of the bin.

I have never come across anyone trying to peel an avocado 😂

Sure it was years ago but OHIO - only handle it once.
saves from just shifting piles of stuff around the house. If it’s in your hands, put it where it’s meant to go.
