Check the condition of your wheels with a penny
To assess tire wear, use the penny you find under the sofa cushions or in your trouser pocket. Testing the coin makes it easier to decide whether or not to buy new tires. Insert a penny upside down, with the number one facing down, into the tread. If the tread reaches the number one, the tires are still usable. If not, it’s time to replace them.

De-ice your car door lock with hand sanitizing gel
It’s essential to cover windscreen wipers with socks to prevent them sticking to the windscreen in cold weather. Be sure to keep the wipers in a vertical position when fitting the socks, to avoid breakage or excessive stress. In addition to wipers and mirrors, door locks can also freeze in winter. Fortunately, with today’s abundance of hand sanitizers, you can solve this problem simply by using a high-alcohol gel, a common item in our bags, pockets or backpacks.
