Hi all! Hope everyone is having a great start to the week! 
Recently I have been going through some of my study habits and picked out one of the stranger things that I personally do to remember words that I will probably never use, and was curious about what other people on the forums do!
As I live in Japan, I find that I am often bombarded with loads of nouns for household consumables, tools, brands, and even foods that I can recognize but would otherwise never use myself. In order to remember these, I often take to Youtube to see if the brand has a catchy jingle, or if there is some kind of DIY or similar channel where people are talking about the product so that it goes from being a word I am just trying to memorize, to a word that actually has some kind of actual memory attached to it in context.
As an example, I recently watched this for 消臭剤 (Deodorizer)
In addition to that, I also checked out a commercial for the specific deodorizer I usually use called 一滴消臭元, which is something you use a single drop of in the bathroom and similar places that accumulate odors, to keep them smelling fresh!
Doing this is a lifesaver and saves me from needing to perpetually add random words to my study queue.
Does anyone else do something like this? How do you all turn words from something that you recognize, to something that you can use freely?
