Back in 1993, Abbey Fleck became famous for her Makin Bacon kitchen tool.

Millions of bacon consumers needed a healthier way to cook bacon that didnt leave it soaked in grease.
Abbey solved that problem.

It doesnt matter how small or trivial your invention is as long as it follows rule #1.
The family took advantage of the buzz by sending Abbey out on a press tour.

Good Luck Penny Hoarders!
