People are only just realising there’s a super easy way to open tight jars – all you need is a bottle opener
A WOMAN has taken to TikTok to share a super easy way to open tight jars – and people can’t believe they didn’t think of it sooner.
KC revealed that you can use a bottle opener to loosen the lid, which means no more bashing jars against tables or searching for someone strong enough to open them.
Known online as @domesticblisters, the content creator regularly shares useful life hacks with her 1.5 million followers.
In a new TikTok reel, she is seen struggling to open a jar of pasta sauce.
She then takes a bottle opener and places it on one side, using it to release the suction.
KC then tries to twist the lid, which comes off easily the first time.
Below the video, she wrote: “Ta-da.”
Fans loved her revelation, with the video gaining more than 91,500 likes and 1.2 million views.
In the comments, KC’s followers shared their reactions, with one writing: “Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat I can’t wait to pretend I thought about this myself.”
Another said: “Not me, just turning around, banging on the corner of the countertop.”
KC replied: “That’s what I’ve been doing for 36 years!”
A third added: “I just went and opened every single jar in my kitchen to prove this. Now I have to use it.”
Someone else put: “Not me realizing my biggest weakness is no more.”
She’s not the only one sharing handy home hacks online – Lizzy and Phil took to TikTok to share their super easy way of touching up paint chips.
Rather than having to find paint tins and brushes, they suggest using Touch-up Pens, available from various retailers for as little as £5.95.
They said: “If, like us, you store your paint outside these touch-up pens are a brilliant solution for touching up paint chips with ease & mean you don’t have to go hunting for your paint tins with the spiders every time you see a chip.
“Fill up with your paint, touch up your paintwork and store in the cupboard for the next time you need them.”
Fans loved her quick and easy hack, with the video gaining more than 560 likes and 63,800 views.
