What's the most unexpectedly useful item you've ever bought under $20?
-
Most common adhesives will be less effective under hot (ie sunlight) conditions.
If you don’t need it to come off, 3Ms GPH (General Purpose High-temp) VHB tape. 50% of your car is probably held together by it.
Thanks, interesting industry knowledge. I need the panels to come off some day though. Otherwise I would have looked at glues/epoxies from the start.

Yeah double glazed, and no hasn't been an issue by my reckoning
Thanks that's good to know!

I've tried (electrical tape) that but found it is gummy and leaves a sticky mess.
That's true. It hasn't mattered for me, as I have never removed any from the lights I blocked with it. I would assume the purpose made stickers would be better about residue if they need to be removed.

No kidding. I saved enough for a big bag of zip ties.

No. The heat from peppers is an oil. Dry finger tips absorb the oil. So either gloves or rub a drop of neutral oil on your fingers before handling peppers.
What’s
neutral oil
and is it neutral regarding everything or just
peppers

they make apple slices taste weird though
🥴Make sure you rinse or wash a knife after sharpening it. The invisible blades aren’t great for our health.

Be careful with a stungun. It requires close range confrontation, and It's not effective if the assailant is drugged up or heavily drunk and ignores the shocks.
Mace gives good distance, and pepper in the eyes doesn't care about the stimulants in your blood stream.
Also practice with it. A large number of people carry self defense tools and choke under pressure/fail to use it correctly during situations.
I’m so so so so so afraid of needing to use a fire extinguisher under pressure

I got a cheap office chair when I moved out after college. It was like $15+20 and it's super comfortable and still use it daily over 10 years later.
It's just foam stapled to plywood but really good support.

Neutral flavor. So something like canola. Things with a strong flavor can impact the taste of the dish.

eating chips with chopsticks also slows me down and some times prevent me from overeating chips
You'll get better over time, so it's a time limited benefit.

Wireless phone charger. I'll be stuck somewhere looking at my low battery life, and suddenly remember it's in my purse. It isn't the fastest charge but it is useful.
