If you’d like to make your iPhone or iPod a little louder – without speakers – try this...

You have a handy little amphitheater right inside your kitchen cabinet...

If you put your iPhone, or any other handheld device, inside a cereal or salad bowl – you’ll automatically pump up the volume. Here are a few more handy life cheats from The Daily Buzz:

• Rubbing a walnut over scratches, dings and scrapes in furniture will blend them in.

• Hull a strawberry with a drinking straw. Start at the bottom and push the stem right out.

• If you’ve got plastic bread tags and a Sharpie – you’ve got custom power cord labels.

• Try making your own popcorn in a plain brown paper lunch bag for a fraction of what the pre-packaged stuff costs.
