Monday is a good day to clean...

With bubble wrap

Protect produce in the fridge

Line your refrigerator's crisper drawer with bubble wrap to prevent bruises to fruit and other product. Cleanup will be easier too – when the lining gets dirty, just throw it out and replace it with fresh bubble wrap.

Cushion your work surface

When repairing delicate glass or china, cover the work surface with bubble wrap to help prevent breakage.

Keep cola cold

Wrap soft drink cans with bubble wrap to keep beverages refreshingly cold on hot summer days. Do the same for packages of frozen or chilled picnic foods. Wrap ice cream just before you leave for the picnic to help keep it firm en route.

Cushion bleachers and benches

Take some bubble wrap out to the ballgame with you to soften those hard stadium seats or benches. Or stretch a length along a picnic bench for more comfy dining.
