Everyday Hacks That Make Us Feel Like We’re Winning at Life

If your living room is like most other living rooms, your couch is placed in front of a wall. It seems like a perfectly cozy setup until you drop something important, like your keys, behind your sofa. Then, it’s incredibly annoying and often difficult to move your couch out of the way to retrieve something small like keys.

No need to fret, though, because if you drop your keys back there again, here’s a simple solution that you can use to grab them and be on your way quickly. Attach a magnet to the end of an extendable tape measure and lower it down behind your sofa. The magnet will attract the keys, and you can pull them up, all while leaving your couch in place.
