LPT if you are ever planning on having kids, buy sturdy not pointy furniture. Growing up we had a nice glass coffee table, in the middle of the living room. Me being nearsighted, decided it would be the perfect bench to watch tv. I sat on it, and it smashed in a thousand pieces. (I broke it again months later). To avoid the same kind of disaster, I bought a really sturdy coffee table set. My children used it as a bench, a…

LPT:Rotate your fitted sheet.

When you pay for your meal, use the 100 you bought an hour earlier. The …

The circuit breaker / fuse in your house only protects the wires inside the walls. It doesn’t “know” if you’re over-currenting your extension cord or power strip. The maximum wattage or amperage should be on the tag of the extension cord …
