Nobody actually wants advice. They just like complaining.

Mine are boring but save money. Bicarb of soda and white vinegar are cheap and have a lot of cleaning benefits. Put a tub of bicarb in the microwave to get rid of smells, mix vinegar and water in an old cleaning spray bottle to clean and soak tupperware in bicarb and water.
-
Yes! Both so useful...
I use white vinegar for cleaning the microwave as well - a tub of it heated up fin there for a minute and it makes it much easier to clean.
And a sprinkle of bicarb in the bottom of a bin to reduce smells.

I don’t live in a warm country, but a 30W fan has more uses than I expected.
During cold weather I can open a window and circulate fresh air very quickly.
It turns out that it dries dishes in the drainer too (it was a fluke that I found that out).
After a shower it can dry the body or get the heavy wet out of long hair while I’m doing something else.

You can make an amazing poached egg with just a microwave

How?? What is this witchcraft?
-
I know, right? Time I put egg in the microwave, it pops and explodes.
-

Just crack your egg into a bowl, here’s the critical part: put some sort of loose lid on it. Loose, dammit, like just sitting on. The egg will explode but be contained and it will just work (with extra noise)

Dollar bills or candy wrappers are great tire boots to patch a small slash in a bicycle tire.
Most jigsaw blades work in an Xacto #2 knife handle

Wash dishes and utensils while cooking. This way, ar the end, you don’t have a big pile of stuff to clean.
-
If applicable: First step of cooking for me is to have an empty dishwasher. Then things go in as I'm done using them.
-
Yeah, I don’t wash my knives and pans/pots in the dishwasher, only plates, glasses, cutlery. But yes, that could be an option for whoever usually washes everything in there. In that case, the advice is to get everything in the dishwasher the moment you finish using it.

When you go swimming: blow your nose in the shower before entering the pool. That way you won't accidentally have a booger hanging out while swimming.
