Woman Hacks Fridge to Dispense Wine Instead of Water; Internet Declares Her Person of the Year

When it's time to buy a new fridge, some of us see a costly expense or an inconvenient trip to the store. Others see an opportunity. Meet Carol from England, a total genius who decided to give her brand-new appliance an awesome upgrade. 

By dumping a bottle of wine into her fridge, she was able to transform her fridge's water dispenser into a chilled wine dispenser. *Cue applause*

Carol shared an image of her clever hack over two years ago, and it has been retweeted a staggering 69,000 times since and received over 180,000 likes. Many of those responding to the tweet have admitted to trying it for themselves—and being thrilled with the results. 

“We ordered the fridge and Joe said it came with a wine cooler section and I said, ‘Or we could put it in the water dispenser,’” Carol told BuzzFeed. “It seemed to make perfect sense.” 

We couldn't agree more.
