By tossing a ball of wadded-up foil into the dryer with a load of clothes you can avoid static cling.You can quickly make your silver look new again by lining a pan with tinfoil, adding two or three tablespoons of baking soda, adding boiling water and then dropping the tarnished silverware in.By crumpling a piece of foil into a ball you can use it rub rust spots off of most surfaces including shower-curtain rods and a car bumper.You can shape a sheet of foil into a cone, tape it securely together and stick the foil into a bottle to use as a makeshift funnel.You can fold a piece of foil several times and insert it into the space between a battery and the loose spring in order to hold the battery in place and repair the circuit.Ball a sheet of tinfoil up and use it to scrub the accumulated black bits off the cooking grates of your grill.Birds will often eat fruit growing from your trees or knock them over. You can protect the trees from this by hanging up strips of twisted foil in the branches. The reflection of light and the sound them make blowing in the breeze will scare of the birds off.Place a piece of tinfoil under the ironing board cover. This will reflect the iron's heat back up to the bottom of the clothes, allowing you to iron both sides at the same time.When you have a loose vinyl tile place a sheet of tinfoil over it and press it down with a hot iron. This will melt the glue which will then stick again and glue the tile back down.Place a sheet of foil in the bottom rack to prevent any drips or crumbs falling to the bottom. Make sure to replace regularly to avoid any damage to the oven.Combine ground beef or chicken in the middle of a sheet of foil and add any vegetables or seasoning you want to them. Wrap the ends and add a second sheet to ensure the food doesn't burn and cook for 20-30 minutes for a delicious BBQ dinner.Cut through a folded sheet of tinfoil several times with a pair of scissors in order to sharpen the dulled blade.When baking line the pan with a sheet of tinfoil to prevent the cookies from sticking to the pans and keep them looking brand new.Place foil on your soap dish to keep the soap from sitting in water and quickly wearing away. 4951

I almost didn't open the thread because I thought it would be the foil covered head of the conspiracy theorists. Glad I opened it.  4951
