Every hinge in my hallway was screaming like a haunted house, especially the one on the bathroom door. I tried WD-40 and it came back after a week, so I looked it up and saw someone suggest rubbing a crayon along the pin. Worked way better than I expected, no mess, and it's been quiet for about 3 months now. Anyone got a trick for the latch that still catches a little no matter how much I file it?
My shower curtain kept billowing in and sticking to me during every rinse, drove me nuts for years. My neighbor Pat finally told me to clip two binder clips onto the bottom hem, one on each side, weighing it down. Cost me maybe 40 cents for a pack of clips I already had in my desk drawer. Now the curtain hangs straight and I don't flail around trying to peel it off my legs. Anyone else got a cheap fix that made a daily annoyance disappear?
