Easy Sneak Leveling
Entry location:
Whiterun stable
Go to Whiterun and enter the empty, outside stall next to the horse. Crouch down in the inside corner next to the barrels and begin sneaking. This is done best at night when the stable owner has gone home since he usually sits outside in the chair next to the stall. You can also sneak inside of the horse's stall if he is outside of it.

Easy Sneak leveling
Entry location:
Black Briar Meadery in Riften
Found an easy way to level up your sneak in Riften. All you have to do is go into Black Briar Meadery and go behind Ungrien in the hall and sneak around. The only thing you have to watch for is people come up from the stairs to your left so wait for them to leave and you should be able to level up your sneak quickly enough.

Unlimited carrying capacity
Entry location:
anywhere
All you need is to have a Raise Dead spell (higher levels work but the bare minimum is required for this). What you have to do is find anything or anyone you can kill (companions if you're desperate but even something as weak and small as a rabbit will do). Once you've killed it, place all the items you want inside it's corpse. Since corpses don't have a weight limit, they can carry everything in your inventory and more. Then, resurrect the corpse, which is now holding all of your items. This being will follow you for however long you the spell actually lasts (unless you have Dead Thrall which will revive them until they are defeated). The second and final part of this is you need to fast travel to any city, whether major or not. Once you get there, your corpse may have turned to ash but this is alright, because now you can take your items from the ash.
Note: some enemies/NPCs are glitched and cannot be revived or cannot have items taken from their ash. You should test this before putting all your items into them. Dragons are a definite no on this one, however you can put some things in their corpse and use any kind of revive spell to fling them great distances and still be able to get back your stuff.

Easily Sneak Level-up
Entry location:
Outside Ivarstead
This isn't the only place you can do this, it's just the place i've found works the best. (It helps if you have the thief stone equipped)
You gain exp for sneak any time you move around while "hidden"...even if you are not really hiding from anyone.
Go to Ivarstead and cross the bridge towards High Hrothgar. After crossing, climb the first few steps and then go to the left and climb back down the slope. You should end up on a little ledge overlooking the river with lots of big rocks on it. Walk towards the edge of the ledge in sneak mode until one of the villagers sees you and the little eye icon says that you are "discovered"
then back away from the edge and hide behind the rocks until the icon says "hidden"
now, if you just move back and forth behind that rock in sneak mode you will constantly gain exp for sneak.
I got my sneak from 20 to 40 in less than 10 minutes using this technique

How to kill giants easily
Entry location:
anywhere
If your in a elevated area (mountain or large hill) lead a giant to a ledge, run behind him and use the unrelenting force shout to knock him down, this may not kill him but he will take significant damage, also you can lead them up a steep path and near the top shout him down, it is risky but each giant has up to 200 gold on him, so its worth it.

Any armor level-up
Entry location:
Gameplay
There are several people, in the bars around Skyrim, who will bet your character 100 gold to fist fight them. Enchant some armor to regenerate health or find some jewelry that has it because the Npc cant do enough damage to majorly hurt you due to the enchantment. Let them back you into a corner and pummel you. My heavy armor skill went from 47 to 60 in an hour, and i leveled twice.

More unlimited steel arrows!
Entry location:
Thieves Guild, Riften
Inside the thieves guild, (not the pub part, but the actual back guild area), there is an area where all of the members hang out. (Big circular area which connects to the training room). Inside the main chamber, there's a few small targets set up for archery practice which the NPC's use. If you see one of them using it, just hop over near the target (not too close) and when they shoot, just pluck the arrows from the target.
After a while, they do stop shooting.. but return to it promptly after you move away for a little while.
I grabbed 120+ Steel Arrows from this before the NPC stopped shooting for me.
