DIY Credit Crunch Tailoring Edit
The Waistband Stretcher

After that huge Thanksgiving dinner, you may not be able to squeeze yourself into those new snug jeans. Taking your pants to the tailor for alterations can be a big expense. Here comes the Waistband Stretcher to the rescue.

Simply dampen the waistband of your pants, fasten the $30 contraption inside and crank the handle to increase their size. The manufacturer says up to 5” of additional belly space is obtainable, so have a little fun, save money and stretch your whole wardrobe.
