Sometimes we use a product against the manufacturers recommendations like say, a q-tip (cotton buds). It states not to stick it in your ear canal, well I can only think of a couple things that feel better than sticking one in my ear canal after a shower. Tell us what you use in a manner not recommended by the manufacturer.

Sleeping with the hairdryer on under the sheets. It’s so warming, and the white noise just lulls me to sleep. Just kidding, I’m not an idiot.

I use a spoon as a buttering knife. Don't ask, just let me have my thing.

I'm not sure if this is as dangerous as it is supposed to be, but I use the handles of wooden spoons to help bring bread dough together. Anyone who makes bread knows that it can be a nightmare to mix things together for the dough with you hands as your still trying to figure out how much liquid/flour to add, so I just use the handle of a wooden spoon until the dough has the right consistency to start kneading it by hand.

That's how my mom always dod it

My shampoo. Every bottle says “DO NOT GET IN EYES” or something and I always do. It’s so much fun! 💀

It also says "lather, rinse and repeat". I never repeat.

Using Bleach - neat. Sometimes it had to be done! On the floor where the cat has been … or the toilet…

I use plastic cups as a speaker for my phone. I've been meaning to buy a Bluetooth speaker, but my cups are just easier to access.

Get a large cardboard tube and cut a slit down the middle of it big enough to stick your phone in. Simulated stereo!

I use the wrong side of a wooden spoon(the long stick part) to mix smoothies in our blender

Using an old toothbrush to get the gunk off anything, especially around crevices. Grime around a faucet, caked on grease, dull jewelry, you name it. But the emphasis is on OLD here people. Don't recommend using your current toothbrush, unless you're into that sort of thing.

That's what I do to clean my drains. Since I use bar soap a lot of film and gunk gets accumulated in the drain.

Q-Tips. I know you're not supposed to use them to clean your ears, but sometime it's necessary when ear wax builds up. I've never gotten a Q-Tip stuck and I don't go that far in. I'm not that careless.
