19 Surprising Hacks That Turn Living Alone from Overwhelming to Empowering
Review: “I love this product. It allows me to carry two 10 lb. jars of my fire glass in each hand. I’ve always struggled to carry handled jars and cans (like this and paint cans). I can hardly wait until my next paint project! Construction of these handles is very durable and has a nice finish (smooth and no sharp edges). Also has a non-slip padded surface on the bottom which is a nice touch. Quality through and through.” – Mark P.
Review: “My sink was blocked and I saw great reviews of this item on Amazon. It arrived within 48 hrs from the time I placed the order till it reached my door! Wow! Great size for my kitchen sink. I was worried it might be a marketing trick with the amazing functions and cost less than $10. However, I’m glad I gave it a try!!! Looks great and clear my sink after a few plunges. Read the instructions before using it.” – Boston Back Bay

Review: “These are much neater and more secure than the chip clips I have used forever. The first batch I bought included small, medium and large gripstics. The small and medium ones are good for bags of chocolate chips, frozen veggies, etc. I had to get more large ones for my chips and cereal and I love them. They keep food fresher longer and my cupboard is neater. Highly recommend them!” – Susan T
