Unstick a zipper

If you get a zipper stuck, the easiest way to fix it is to rub something on the zipper that can act as a lubricant. There are a bunch of things you can use: pencil lead, bar soap, or candle wax. Just get the thing you are going to use and rub on the zipper, both inside and outside, near where the zipper is stuck.
