Have you found a good bargain lately, made a repair, or figured out something that works for you?

I learned that diagnosing and fixing your washing machine yourself is surprisingly easy (for most issues).

If you have an older washer and have never taken it apart to clean it you'd be amazed by how much gunk there is in there. Clothes feel so much better after giving the tub a thorough clean.

I fixed my inlaws toy water wheel so it spins with the flow of water. They'd inserted the sea dragon holding the wheel the wrong way round.

I am immensely satisfied with myself and my ginormous intellect, to be able to see the sea dragon was facing down, when it should have been facing up! Basically as smat as Tony Stark!
