Cleaning supplies are expensive, can be smelly, and (if you have little ones or pets) can be downright dangerous. Trying some affordable alternatives to chemically produced products can help you save both money and the environment. Load up on white vinegar, you can get it in large quantities for cheap. It’s a natural disinfectant so you can use it on most countertops and other surfaces like faucets, showers, and tubs. Vinegar and water makes a great glass cleaner too. Another cheap and easy product to clean is baking soda. Bust up grease, use it with boiling water to unclog a sink, pour some in with your laundry.
