Free Puppies

Post an add on craigslist or similar site offering free puppies. Write some sob story how it breaks your heart that you can’t keep them, but want to make sure they go to a good home. Pick a super cute breed that no one can resist, then put your friends phone number as the contact. They will be blowing up with calls all day.

Toasty Tushy

Smear a little Icy Hot or Bengay on the toilet seat in the morning before your partner gets out of bed. Caution: a little goes a long way.
