Heloise tips for storage and quick household fixes

Readers share practical hacks from labeling personal items for easy return to waxed garbage cans to revive bow ties with steam. Suggestions include adhesive labels on umbrellas bags and shoes, using paste wax inside cans, adding fresh juice to frozen orange juice, and sewing a wrist pin holder.

Family budgeting plan builds emergency fund and flexible spending

The guide stresses listing fixed costs first such as rent or mortgage and utilities then creating an emergency fund. Families should set aside a regular amount weekly until the fund reaches a chosen level and rebuild after depletion. It then covers day to day expenses and choices like transportation and food with input from older children.
