Ever have trouble drinking with a straw and keeping it in place while sipping out of a canned product (like soda or a juice drink)? Here's the latest hack (trick) I found to solve this problem...
You can easily keep that straw from bobbing out of the can. By utilizing that little tab on the can top you can keep it in place. Put your straw through the tab hole and your rising straw will stay in place. Pretty neat

@dgobucks226 Well crap on a stick! I have never heard about this before! I love seeing things like this. It's amazing how many objects we use that we could have been using differently this whole time!

It's only a chance I remember the post of Ingrid about the straw. Plastic straws have even been banned here now.

Yes, a pretty ingenious idea, lol. I wonder if 7 Eleven and other fast food places stole their idea for their beverage lids?
