Auto Can Opener

These are very helpful. As you can see in the photo they are useful in many places and activities! Another helpful and inexpensive tool.

Cutting Board Vise Combo

This thing is great. Especially for opening larger items. I don't cook nowadays, but there is a handy tool on this cutting board too! Watch a demo by clicking here (second half of video).

Walker

Now we all know what these are. I actually suggest a certain type depending on if you are male or female. The male version below is a bit heavier, while the female is lightweight.

Envelope Opener

Unzip Your Envelopes!

It is so easy to use with one hand! It literally ZIPS the envelope open in seconds and I can do it independently.

Nose Clips

If you’re on blood thinners, even a 325mg aspirin, like I am, you may experience nosebleeds. These stop nose bleeds in 20 minutes flat!
