I'll start with an embarrassing one:
I use hair conditioner as shaving cream. I started many years ago when I moved to Israel and brought along shaving razors but hadn't gotten around to buying shaving cream. I remembered reading that conditioner could be used and have been using that ever since

Baking soda. Great for throw up. It cuts the smell, soaks up the liquid, and makes amuch easier cleanup. It also automatically sticks to the mess, so I can find any missed spots by sprinkling, both before the cleanup, and after.
It really helps cut down on my horrible gag reflex.

Cutting fruit (plums, peaches, nectarines etc) down the middle and ripping it apart and eating both halves separately.
Instead of biting into it the whole fruit and getting all gooey and sticky.

I use plastic bags on top of the chicken when using the mallet to pound it. The mallet doesn't get tiny pieces of chicken in its grid so cleanup is easier and the pounding goes faster because it's not sticky.

Yes! Great for toddler accidents on carpet or fabric covered furniture as well!
I buy the huge bag from costco and use it very liberally. Once it’s all dry just vacuum it up and there’s no smell.
(It can effect some fabrics though so test first, out of many uses it once left a mark on the carpet)
It’s great for so many other things as well.
A cup in the bath can help kids unwind and calm down.
Good to add some in the washing machine.
Leave a cupful in the freezer to prevent the freezer smell.

How much of a scent does it give your house and how often do you need to do it?

Three great uses for toothpaste, the white kind, not gel. I do all 3.
Rubbing it on itchy mosquito bites - when it dries, the itching stops.
Dabbing it on pimples, it dries them out over night.
Using it to close and conceal unused nail or screw holes or other small defects in (interior) walls. If the hole is too big, I fill it with damp compressed paper first and then smear on the toothpaste smoothly. Might have to be repeated a few times because it shrinks when it dries. After drying, it can be painted colors other than white to blend into the rest of the wall, if needed.
