In a now-viral TikTok, a gas station worker shows a nifty trick to transform a plastic bag into a cup holder for customers buying two drinks.

Featured Video

TikToker user Joshua (@joshuaellle) posted the video on April 4. Within 24 hours, the video received over 4.7 million views.

In the video, a gas station worker places a full beverage cup on one side of a plastic bag next to the handle. Then, she folds the other side of the bag and places the second drink on the opposite side. She easily pulls up the handles to reveal a convenient plastic cup holder.
