Some of the biggest culprits of accidents on roadways in America are deer-car collisions. But the majority of the accidents aren't from hitting the deer the driver sees darting across the road; it's from another deer that quickly followed the one the driver missed. If you see a deer running across the street, there is a high statistical chance another one will be right behind. Slow down and be aware of the second deer.

Have metal hangers from the dry cleaner? Technically, they are recyclable in most curbside recycling bins (because they have a percentage of recyclable steel), but the reality is that most recyclers don't want them -- they can get snagged on recycling equipment. Most dry cleaners now accept the hangers and will reuse them. But you might want to hang onto a few: There are tutorials online of people using the hangers to make snakes to unclog drains. In a plumbing emergency, one wire hanger could come in quite handy.

Do you hoard the little bottles of fancy hotel toiletries like shampoo, lotions, soaps and conditioner when you travel? You might be sitting on a small pile of fundraising gold. Here's a simple way to declutter and raise money for your favorite charity: Ask friends and neighbors to give you their small bottles of unopened toiletries, then group them by brand and sell them on eBay. Many brands sell travel-friendly versions of their products online (some go for as much as $45 for five small bottles), so your eBay sale can help a buyer to both score a deal and support your favorite cause. If some of the brands aren't quite high-end enough, local shelters also accept them to give to people in need.
