Many of us raid hotel rooms when we stay there and take the mini toiletries and other freebies in the bathroom with us. Here's an idea for the hotel shower cap: Use it in the kitchen as a food saver. Simply wrap the top of mixing bowls (when proofing dough) or when you have leftovers. The elastic around the cap will keep it snuggly wrapped around the bowl and in place.

The next time you're baking, save the aluminum foil to give your dull scissors a makeover. Stack seven used, clean and dry pieces of aluminum foil on top of each other and cut away with your dull scissors. The blades will re-sharpen the more you cut the foil and eventually leave you with practically good-as-new scissors. And remember: The aluminum foil is still recyclable, so crumple it up into a ball and toss it in your curbside bin.

If the cost of refills for those refillable mops has you questioning their value or not, then look no further than your closet to save money. An old cotton T-shirt can be cut into squares and used in place of those disposable sheets. Simply attach the shirt square to the mop, soak lightly with all-purpose cleaner and wipe away. And the best part? The T-shirt squares are machine washable and can be reused several times.
