Cheap but handy tips
Stripped wood screw? Don't go with a bigger screw. Instead, place wood glue on a golf tee, drive into hole, let glue cure, cut off flush, drill hole in the "new wood". (round toothpick for tiny screws.)
Place a kitchen rug in your trunk. Protects original carpet, but doubles as a kneeling pad while changing a tire. Place a pair of cotton gloves under the rug.
Any others?
