Scheduling a pick up? Every time we hit the swap meet, we always kick ourselves for not calling that friend of ours who owns a pickup truck. We've been using bungee cords, but they've been wearing out quickly or they get misplaced. This Car Trunk Extender may do the trick: not only does it anchor oversized cargo in the trunk, but there's an emergency light and a built-in cutter.

Available at Overstock for $14.99.
