Wow, this is a pretty intense setup! They have to be engineering majors, right? I get the queasy feeling that this episode ends badly. Maybe not… Seriously, what could go wrong?

Some could argue this is foolish. Others may think it’s crude. And they wouldn’t be wrong. But this might be genius in its own way. Has a hairdryer and iron combination been used in the same way before? This might be a first.

Well if the metal is the right material and the cart’s been properly cleaned and disinfected maybe it could work… I’m not sure why I’m trying to justify this. It’s certainly creative, to say the least.

What happens when life gives you lemons? You turn those lemons into a beer refrigerator. I like the top compartment. I’m getting chills just looking at this.

Need to get rid of the evidence of a party? I guess this is one option… The pool’s for the added safety, obviously. What a lovely view.

This prototype actually has potential. Imagine putting the lights inside the containers. With the right material, it might be possible. With cash hard to come by in college, this is every bit as frugal as it is reckless…

This. This right here is innovation. I’m not sure how much weight and pressure it can support, and those tires are certainly not optimal for the job, but I like the idea of riding a mechanical lawnmower. It looks kinda fun.

Assuming the iron and stove are clean, this might not be the worst idea ever. Metal does conduct heat pretty well, after all. But seriously, definitely invest in a new iron!

What do you do when you have no money and need some cups? As a college student, just cut up those old plastic bottles. Shoutout to that ornate goblet.

Tennis champions always have a racket on hand. I’m not sure how sanitary this is, but it might just work. Seriously though, strainers only cost a couple bucks!

This is what innovation looks like. Faced with a lack of resources, this skater automated the process of capturing water. Even that dude in the hall on the left is impressed.

Most bookcases just hold books. This bookcase takes things to the next level… It’s made of books. There’s no need to spend hundreds of dollars on fancy shelves and pristine wood. Nope, just use other books.

There’s something to be said about buying it bulk. Sometimes, it can definitely be advantageous. Unfortunately, this giant roll that looks like its meant for interstate rest stops and public bathrooms might not fit…

Washing dishes is the worst. So how do you avoid washing dishes? This goes beyond paper and plastic plates… If done wrong, this can be incredibly wasteful.

If the dining hall has no rules against this… why not? I’m sure she saves a ton on milk. There are tons of shortcuts in life. Sometimes you just have to know what knobs to pull.

What’s the best way to prevent car theft? Make it impossible for the thief to actually drive, right? If you’re worried about security, this is ingenious.

Some leather doesn’t last. Instead of wasting the time to repair the leather or get a new couch, just grab a standalone chair! Is that a DVD copy of Top Gun?

Who needs candles when you have matches? I’m not sure that they’ll have the same effect, though. For what it’s worth, the cake looks scrumptious!

What do you do with a sock that has a hole in it? Try to repair it? Throw it away? Nah. There are other, more… innovative means.

Boiled eggs usually come in a pot on a stove. I can’t speak to the efficacy of this method as I’ve never even seen it even attempted. This pot’s serving up way more than just coffee these days!

I’m hoping this message comes with the idea of recycling all of those cans! Maybe it’s a scheme to profit off of excess aluminum? I hope those cans were used for the powers of good!

Everyone needs a dustpan. They’re relatively cheap. But if you’re completely broke, there are other ways… like the pan pizza.

Sometimes the monophonic audio of most modern phones simply doesn’t cut it. Achieving stereophonic sound isn’t only possible with expensive electronics. A couple milk cartons can go a long way.

What do you do when you get into a fender bender? Some bumpers are beyond repair! Well, that’s one way to fix the damage…

They say a broken clock’s right twice a day. Well, this one’s broken all day everyday. But it still works thanks to some creative wizardy!

People who travel everywhere with their hammocks have the right idea. He knows exactly what he’s doing. Anywhere’s the perfect spot when you have a hammock!

College kids will do anything to save a buck or three. Get ready for liftoff! Next stop: graduation!

Admittedly, I didn’t use an iron a single time during my college years. There are ways to circumvent the need for an iron… Who would have known pots of boiling water could be so useful outside of the kitchen?

Want to save a few bucks on your shower curtain? Skip the curtain rings. If you have an abundance of hangers, you’re good to go… maybe.

Tape can fix anything. Like this plate, for instance. You can barely notice it ever broke. It’s as good as new!

Chopsticks don’t even cost anything… You can get them for free – in excess – at tons of restaurants. This is disrespectful to pens and noodles… and chopsticks.

Well, this is certainly an interesting way to replace a fire alarm. Never ever do this. Plus, that’s just a waste of some good movie night popcorn. Remember kids, stay cool about fire safety!

How do you heat your food minus a microwave and stove? There are other ways… They’re just not as effective. Weird… the rice tastes a little hairy.

Let me introduce you to the famous hood-bowl. It keeps you warm and provides a workable container for all your snacks! Just be careful when watching horror films.

Never look back as they say. But in a car, you have to look back. What do you do when you’re missing a mirror and have no money? You get creative. Definitely never do this.
