92. Use Bungee Cord To Secure Grocery Bags

Items Needed: Bungee cord
Est. Price: $20-$25 on Amazon*

There are a lot of ways to secure groceries in your car so that you don’t have to hear them thumping and rolling around while you’re driving. At best, that sound is annoying, and, at worst, you’ll have a mess on your hands after something spills.

Secure your groceries with bungee cords. You can find a bungee cord on Amazon for $20 to $25. If you want extra security, place the groceries in boxes or a large bag before you strap them to your trunk with a cord. Use reusable bags when you grocery shop to pack the food, as they’re sturdier than the usual paper or plastic.
