Learned a great trick for opening those white kitchen trash bags [View all]

I have a full box and none of them open. They are so stuck together. So I learned a tip on youtube that I wanted to share in case you find this as frustrating as I do.

Put a small piece of tape on one side of the top of the bag and another small piece of tape on the other side. Pull the two piece of tape in opposite directions and Voila. No more frustration, lol.
