Here are a few samples:

Luggage Tassels - Bruce Block
Ever seen those obnoxious tassels or bright-colored ribbons on people's suitcases at the airport? They don't put them there so they can spot their particular pieces of luggage amongst all the others; they do it so other people won't mistake the luggage for theirs.

You Talkin' to Me? - Eric Mead
On airplanes, if you aren't in the mood for conversation, wearing sunglasses during the flight will prevent most people from talking to you. The headphones will seal the deal.

Gaffer Socks - Mike Caveney
Forgot your socks? Wrap your ankles with black gaffer's tape. It looks perfect and no one will suspect a thing. Taking these "socks" off will be so painful that you will most likely never forget your socks again. And even if you do, the second time around, it's much less painful since your ankle hair was thrown away with that first pair of gaffer socks.
 
Hot (Enough) Glue - Charlie Frye
You don't have to pack a glue gun to enjoy the wonder of a hot glue repair. Just carry some glue sticks and melt them with a lighter or match to get that quick fix.

Stain Assault - Michael Weber
A simple paste made of water and table salt is great for "loosening" stains made by meats. Meat is a protein (we knew that), and salt is also made of a protein string (we did not know that), so in the cut-a-diamond-with-a-diamond theory, rubbing salt-paste on the stain will free the proteins from the cloth fibers and make them easier to rinse-out with cold water. Remember, always pat a stain, don't rub it.

Feet First - Paul Green
Trade show workers should purchase two pair of gel insoles for your shoes. Wear one pair and after a day on your feet, come back to your hotel room and exchange the worn insoles for the second set which you placed in the mini-bar refrigerator. Put your feet up for ten minutes with the cool insoles, and then stick either a shoetree or newspaper in your shoes. The cooling relaxation period is great, and in the morning your shoes will be stretched and ready for another day.

On-the-Road Printer - Jon Wee
Don't feel like lugging your printer while traveling? Simply fax documents from your laptop via the modem in your hotel room down to the business center or front desk, or a nearby Kinko's.

Better Mattress - Max Maven
When you're staying alone in a hotel room with a king-size bed, sleep on the side that does not have the telephone on its nightstand, as it will be the less-worn half of the mattress.

Laundry Money - John Carney
Ever had cash you didn't want to carry when going out for a night on the town (especially in shady neighborhoods or third-world countries), and there's no hotel safe to lock up your valuables? Put your money in a dirty sock and throw it on the floor in a closet, with the door open. Toss a few other socks and a pair or two of dirty (relatively speaking) underwear on top. If you were a thief, would you start your search for loot there?

Poster Child - Randy Pryor
If you want to bring home or carry a poster in your luggage and keep it from getting creased and folded, but you don't have a mailing tube, stick the rolled poster in a few well-placed rolls of toilet paper.

Customized Agents - Gregory Wilson
Here's a tip for avoiding hassles at customs. There are essentially two lines in which you are "checked out," the thorough inspection line and the not-so-thorough line, which is, get this, for those bringing in produce. So, when an agent asks if you have any fruits or vegetables to declare, say yes! That's right, you confess to having an apple or a banana, they wave you over to the not-so-thorough line, which is a much shorter line. Sure, they'll confiscate your groceries, but you'll avoid the long and tedious search.  P.S. Don't forget to act a bit disgruntled when they seize your goodies. Just note to yourself when traveling, "An apple a day keeps the agents away."
