I heard of this trick a long time ago and never thought that I would use it. But it happened. The hallway light by my bedroom burned out and I broke the bulb removing the glass cover. So here it is, an old, but good way to remove a broken light bulb from a socket. Cut a potato in half and press one of the halves down gently but firmly onto the broken bulb. Once it’s securely on, twist it out just as if it were the bulb. This will prevent the possibility of slicing your fingers up or getting glass in your hand.
