The DIY Cleaning Kit: Ditching Expensive Commercial Chemicals

on

Published in Personal Finance

Take a look under your kitchen sink right now. How many different specialized plastic bottles do you see lining the shelf?

There's a specific spray for the glass, another for the granite counters, a third for the bathroom tiles, and a fourth for the stainless steel appliances.

If you add up the cost of all those single-purpose commercial cleaning products, you are paying a massive premium for water, fancy packaging, and artificial fragrances.

The ultimate cheapskate cleaning hack requires just three basic ingredients: white vinegar, baking soda, and a bottle of blue dish soap.

 

With these household staples, you can mix up safe, incredibly effective multi-purpose cleaners that tackle grease, grime, and scum for pennies.

Not only will your home sparkle, but you'll also clear out valuable cabinet space and eliminate harsh chemical fumes.
