Got a closet full of clothes but the pack rat in you can't seem to part with any of them? A user on popular social news site Reddit offers a simple tip for weeding out those clothes you don't need.


Reddit's got a great "What are your best lifehacks?" thread going on right now, and the most popular item on the list is this gem from user elblanco:

Putting my clothes in my closet with the hangers reversed once a year. As I pull clothes out, I reverse the hanger. Every year I give away any clothes that I never took out.


The same idea could apply to pretty much anything you'd like to pare down (your junk drawer, perhaps?)—all you need is a method of separating what you've used from what you haven't. Photo by Brymo. Update: Sorry if this seems familiar to our long-time readers.
