Vinegar, the Frugal Cleaner for lots of things :)

Hi,

Apple Cider Vinegar is for personal use - these are for use with the white vinegar.

1. Floors, linoleum, vinyl and tile, it works on all of them

Put on cup of vinegar into a sink or wash basin of warm to hot water. I squirt a little bit of Dr. Bronner's Peppermint soap, in as well - not much as not much is needed.

Wash any floor and you'll have a very inexpensive way to clean your floors, and a very healthy way for cleaning as well.

2. Windows - 1/4 cup of vinegar in a half gallon of water, wash windows and watch them sparkle. I've heard that drying them with plain newspaper if a great way to dry them, but for myself, I've never tried it as paper towels worked great for me :)

3. Take water stains out of leather by wiping down with a cloth that has vinegar and water on it, amazing, but it works.

4. For stains such as berrys, coffee, (not sure about blood, but worth a try), grass, and lots of dirt, soak in full strength vinegar and the stains should come out.

5. Wipe down your counters with a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Safe and easy.

6. For those of us who clean our ovens, after we're done, they can and always seems to be a nasty chemical smell, when we go to use them, so don't. Wipe or rinse the inside with plain vinegar, no dilution and the smell should be gone.

Here's a few, if there's any interest, I'll post some more. :)
