Bought a jar of Waitrose pickle, but couldn't unscrew the top. Tried again and again. Tried hot water over the lid. Nothing worked.
So googled and found a solution!
Using a wooden spoon or similar, went round the top edge, tapping all the way. This apparently helps to release the vaccum causing it to be stuck.
Came undone on the next attempt with very little effort. I was amazed, so thought it might help fellow chatters.
