Geat timesavers!

Joann Derson King Features Syndicate

“If you need to work with finishing nails, you might have the same problem I do: They are terrible to keep in place when first putting them in. I solved it by using a small but strong magnet in the shape of a thin rectangle. I can put the nail on the end of the magnet, tap it in place and then detach the magnet to drive the nail in all the way. This has saved me HOURS of aggravation and sore fingers through the years. — C.A. in Florida

“Here’s a timesaver: Schedule repeat visits before you leave. This applies to doctors, dentists, hair stylists, veterinarians, etc.

“I keep a pair of scissors and a lint roller in (almost) every room. I always seem to need them, and I never have to go far to get one. — G.K. in Indiana
