It's believed the No. 1 "consumer" of coffee in American households is ... your kitchen drain. When it comes to making coffee at home, the reality is that many people pour leftover coffee straight down the drain. This habit wastes resources and money. If you don't use a whole pot of coffee, consider instant coffee instead, to make one cup at a time. Or reuse old coffee when cooking: It can come in handy for brining chicken, making gravy or giving a power boost to protein drinks and smoothies.

Ever wonder how to get the last bit of liquid cleanser, hand soap or household cleaner out of the bottle without having to unscrew the top and dump it out? Do one thing: Add glass marbles to the bottle. When the bottle is about one-third full, toss in a few glass marbles to help raise the liquid amount inside the bottle. This will help the pump reach the remaining liquid without affecting the efficacy of whatever liquid is inside. Just be sure the glass marbles are clean.

Sure, an organized closet with all of your garments on hangers looks great, but it may not be doing any good for some of those items, specifically sweaters. No matter what kind of hanger you use, hanging sweaters will cause them to stretch and lose their shape quickly. If you want to extend the life of your sweaters, it's best to fold them instead of hanging. And here's a useful tip if you're short on space: Fold your sweaters in half and lay them over the rod in your closet.
