  1. A good money saver and planet saver is to make your own household cleaner. I use water, vinegar, baking soda, and lemon. Vinegar is a disinfectant and it even cleans up grease well. Best of all, it is non-toxic so you can use it around food and pets. I get the recipe here: http://www.eartheasy.com/live_nontoxic_solutions.htm
