When it comes to tricks in life, the following will be of great help, which might surprisingly end up working the magic.
Hooks that help
There's nothing worse than throwing something into the trash bin and watching the garbage bag fall in with it. To prevent this, stick two wall hooks onto the outside of your bin（one on either side）, positioned so they face downward. The next time you replace the grocery bag, loop its handles through the hooks and no matter how full the bag gets, it'll never drop to the bottom of the bin again.
Easier garbage storage
You have probably encountered this: after filling the bag with trash, it forms a vacuum （真空） seal so tight that it's a struggle to lift the bag out once it's full. What to do? Punch a couple of small holes in the sides, a few centimeters above its base. The holes will allow just enough airflow to make lifting out the trash a piece of cake.
Instant bottle brush
If you have an ordinary kitchen sponge（海绵） and a fork, then you have everything you need for a DIY bottle brush. Pierce the narrowest edge of the sponge with the fork and slide the sponge down until the points of the fork are fully covered. You can now clean out the skinniest bottle with ease.
Express drying
Need washed load of laundry dried in a flash? Toss a clean, dry towel into the dryer along with all the wet stuff for the first 15 minutes of the cycle. It'll absorb some of the moisture and speed up the overall drying time.
