Inkjet printers often use pricey cartridges that seem to dry up immediately after you've installed them. To maximize and economize your cartridges, do two things: Set your printer settings to draft mode, and print Word documents using Century Gothic, which uses less ink than most commonly used fonts. And when the cartridges run out of ink, take them to stores like Walgreens, which can refill them at a fraction of the cost of buying new.

To keep your brush healthy and clean, store it upright inside your medicine cabinet, not on the bathroom countertop. You can also disinfect your toothbrush periodically by microwaving it on high for 15 seconds.

After your next party, don't dump leftover sips of white wine down the drain. Consolidate the wine into a spray bottle, and use it to keep your kitchen countertops clean. The white wine will help remove rust stains and mineral deposits, and the residual alcohol will kill harmful germs and bacteria. You can also use white wine to clean any red wine that may have spilled on your carpet.
