Today I'm gonna show you some really useful everyday life hacks
And we're gonna start with power sockets
If you haven't got enough space to plug everything in
Maybe in your bedroom or office
So you have to swap things around occasionally
It can be difficult to know whats what
You might think you're unplugging the printer
But actually it turns out to be the monitor
It can all get a bit messy and confusing
So take a piece of paper
and write down all the appliances you want plugged in
Then use a pair of scissors to cut them out
We are gonna use these to label each plug
Next take a roll of tape
Cut off a strip,
and attach it to one of the labels like this
Then go ahead and stick it onto the plug
Make sure you stick it to the right one
Carry on doing this with all your cut-outs
Until you've labeled all of your plugs
and next time you want to change an appliance over
You'll know exactly which one your unplugging and plugging in
If you're finding you're wallet or purse is filling up with store cards for collecting points
and you want to take some out to make it a bit lighter
You can turn your cards over
and photograph the barcode with your phone

Photo the front of your card as well

So you know which barcode relates to which card
You can make a special folder on your phone to save all the images
Next time you're out shopping just flick through the folder until you find the right card

If you're at the supermarket and need a shopping trolley
But find you haven't got the right coin to get one
You can try using a house key
This standard size key just slips straight in and you can pull out the chain
It really is useful if you haven't got the right change because you've nearly always have your house key
and when you finished clip the chain back in
and retrieve your key
Pretty cool huh!
If you've got a bucket that needs filing up with water
But it doesn't fit properly in your sink or basin
You can take a plastic bottle
Remove the label
and carefully use a knife or a pair of scissors to cut a hole in the bottom
Then remove the lid
Slide it over the tap
and straight into the bucket
Turn on the water and its a great way to extend the reach of your taps
Perfect for filling up buckets
When its full slide it off the tap
and turn off the water
