6. Trash Bag Suction Issues
Pulling a bag out of a trash can is a challenge that sometimes takes four arms, a good squat and a little muscle thanks to the vacuum that prevents a trash bag from easily sliding out.

Just be sure to carry bread clips around in your purse…

Fill in the hole with a golf tee and a little carpenter’s glue, and then cut off the end to create a flush piece of wood for your new screw. Don’t have a golf tee handy? I’ve also seen this done with toothpicks!
