Does anybody go to open their pop and the cap on it is SO tight that you can't open it no matter what? I bruised and tore up the palm of my hand yesterday trying to open a Coke bottle. I hate when they tighten themselves so much.

Yep but I am a weakling and I normally have to have someone open it for me anyways!
I find those little grippy mats really work well. I almost never have to ask my husband to open stuff naymore. Though sometimes I do 'cos it gives him such a wee thrill!
Umm, Jason, perhaps you should just ask Tara next time?

Usually if I try hard enough they open. This one I put everything I had into it and it didn't budge. Maybe I'll have to switch to Pepsi.
Apparently you have been exercising the wrong "muscles".

I dont drink carbonated beverages so I dont have to worry about the Coke bottles but for everything else I use the grippy thingers or I ask JosÃ[emoji]169[/emoji].
I'm so weak that I've also been known to pull out a pearing knife!

The worst is when you try to open a beer bottle that isn't twist-off like it is. Ripped open my palm like that once. Now there are more bottle openers than you could use in the kitchen.

I get that a lot with Gatorade caps. It's like they're trying to make sure you have excercised somehow before drinking it!
I have a fantastic gadget with various size heads that squeezes around the bottle top and then allows me to apply leverage without ripping my hands to bits - I love it
I used to have a jar opener that would work well for the gatorade lids, but I haven't been able to find it for months.Originally Posted by flisssweetpea
