Use your outlets for power-free applications

dieelectric1.jpgYou've got tons of outlets in your house, naturally, and they're plenty useful when you have stuff plugged into them powering things. But what about those empty sockets? Why let them go to waste just because you don't have electronic items to plug into them? Those holes could be used to hold things!

Look at this stuff made by Die Electric, for example. These "socket stuffers" can do things like turn your empty outlet into a toothbrush holder, adding efficiency and saving counter space in your bathroom. Other such items offered by Die Electric include fire extinguishers, flower pots, and, for the ultimate in irony, candle holders. So quit letting your outlets go to waste!

Bad idea! Water, Electrical socket. Not even baby knows better when it comes to sitting in a wet diaper and playing with a wall socket.
