out and store in the garage. Here's why...for each 100
pounds your car carries, its fuel efficiency drops by 2%...
yes by 2%. That's like paying 3 cents more per gallon at the
pump.

Hint 1:

Prevent splatters in the microwave by covering your food with
a plain white paper plate. It stays in place, unlike paper
towels.

Hint 2:

Every few weeks or so toss in a handful of ice cubes and some
lemon peels into your garbage disposal, and turn on and run
the cold water. The cubes will break up any grease, while the
lemon wards off any foul odors.
