Petticoat JUNKtion
My dad is full of good information and is quite witty. I've learned a lot from him over my 68 years.
12 DOLLAR TREE ITEMS
1. CLOTHESPINS
Dad has several uses for clothespins, including holding the cash for his cleaning lady and clipping together bills to pay or invitations that need further evaluation.
2. NOTE PADS
Dad keeps notepads on the table beside his chair to jot down notes from people who call. The pad also has a handy list of phone numbers.
3. RUBBER BANDS
I picked up this tip from Dad and use it at the house when I have rubber bands handy. Instead of chip clips, wrap large rubber bands around your bag of opened chips.
4. VINYL OR PLASTIC BINS
These bins come in handy for corralling Dad's prescription bottles, and he uses one bin to hold stamps, envelopes, ink pens, and return address labels.
5. SCISSORS
Scissors are a must-have for those difficult-to-open potato chip bags. I can't open some of those bags either so I keep a pair of scissors in my kitchen silverware drawer.
