Frugal Living Tips #3

Here are a few more tips to help save

1) When doing laundry, dry your clothes in consecutive batches. This way the dryer is always warm and doesn't have to waste electricity heating up each time.

2) Use less laundry detergent. They want you to use more than is needed so you buy more of their product!

3) Don't spend money on tools you won't use often. Instead, see if you can borrow from a friend, neighbor, family member, etc.

4) Make your own room deodorizers.  Use essential oils and drop onto cotton balls. Place in a jar with a lid and open the lid whenever you want to deoderize the room.

5)  Remove muddy footprints from carpet with salt. Sprinkle salt on the mud and rub it in. Vacuum it off after an hour.  If some of the spot remains, or the mud is dried, cover with a solution of 1/4 teaspoon dishwashing liquid in a quart of warm water. Vacuum again once it dries.
