A handy tip for opening stuck jar lids is to put a rubber band around the lid and the added grip lets you open it.
So why not just make the lids with a rubber edge so that they shouldn't be too hard to open in the first place?
(?) In the mean time...

translate DrC - the idea is excellent, cannot find anything baked or half-baked so nitpick on the title. |

I agree with the hotdoc, it should be 'even a girl can open this jar lid'. +1 neat idea. |

A band I was in waybackwhen considered and rejected the name "Rubber Husband". |

This is, quite frankly, mega. |

[Later: just checked your site, liam. Have you been secretly controlling my word choice with a top secret remote word choice control device?] |

Is that synonomous with "condom cohabitator" [waugs]? |

It was a common name for those rubber jar openers. |

Not just rubber; the lid should have a countoured grip. |
|
| |
If a jar lid's stuck on through a vacuum, I get out the centre-punch and a pin hammer. <pfffffft> And then I reseal the small hole with a bit of tape. |

MFY, you should post that as a separate idea, then use it to make the annos read in the opposite sense to the votes. That'd confuse 'em. |
