Garbage Stink
After just a few uses, your outdoor garbage cans always develop a nasty odor. To combat this stench, soak a slice of bread in vinegar and place the slice in the bottom of the can on a paper towel. Leave the bread in there overnight and remove it in the morning and the odors will all be eliminated!
Old Window Hack
Old homes typically mean old windows. Oftentimes, these windows haven't been opened in a while and get stuck. This also happens when windows have been painted and aren't allowed enough time to dry and so when the window is shut, it essentially seals them closed. To get those windows opened back up you just need a chisel and a hammer. The chisel can be placed between the window and the frame and with some light tapping with the hammer, the seal should come loose.
