These tricks actually work that help you a lot in your life.\n<h4>1. Snip it Off with Scissors\n</h4><p><img fetchpriority='\"high\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-3368 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/1-16.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"700\"' height='\"700\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/1-16.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>When you need to open a bottle without an opener, try this DIY solution: Grab a pair of strong scissors and grab a piece of the bottle cap with the scissors. Start twisting upward and repeat around the cap until it pops off.\n</p><h4>2. Spoon it Out\n</h4><p><img decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-3369 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/2-14.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"700\"' height='\"700\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/2-14.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>Find a big spoon in your kitchen and use it as a pry bar when your bottle opener goes missing. The spoon should face up and be inserted underneath the cap. Then push up on the tip of the spoon to remove the cap and you\u2019ve got a new way to open a beer bottle without a bottle opener.\n</p><h4>3. Use a Lighter\n</h4><p><img decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-3370 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/3-15.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"700\"' height='\"700\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/3-15.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>After college, I couldn\u2019t name a friend that hasn\u2019t tried this trick at least once. If someone has a lighter handy you can turn it into a bottle opener with a flick. Simply grab the neck of the bottle with one hand and use a lighter as a pry tool. Place the wide side of the bottom of the lighter below the cap while your other hand is positioned just below the cap. It works out as a lever system with the knuckle acting as a fulcrum.\n</p><h4>4. Buckle-Down with a Belt Buckle\n</h4><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-large' wp-image-3371 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/4-11-1024x1024.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"1024\"' height='\"1024\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/4-11-1024x1024.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>Depending on the type of buckle, a belt can be used to open a bottle when you don\u2019t have a bottle opener handy. Use the buckle as a traditional bottle opener to unleash the refreshing hops. If you can\u2019t figure out the physics, retailers have started offering belts with bottle openers built-in.\n</p><h4>5. Double Down with a Dollar\n</h4><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-3372 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/5-11.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"700\"' height='\"700\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/5-11.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>If you want to win yourself some money to go out and buy a proper bottle opener, try out this trick.

If it works you\u2019ll be a legend and a little richer. If you need more money\u2026 Well, you can start with these thrifty tricks to make everything you own last longer.\n</p><h4>6. Find a Table Edge\n</h4><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-3373 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/6-10.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"700\"' height='\"700\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/6-10.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>I vividly remember the moment my uncle showed me this trick and my jaw falling to the floor.
