substitutions

We have substutions in the food section, so I thought it would be nice here too.

You can use frozen vegetables for an ice pack. You can also make an ice pack by using 2 parts water & 1 part rubbing alochol. Put it into a ziplock bag & store in the freezer.

My daughter bought a bunch of hankies for $0.10 each. She uses these as napkins.

The best pot scrubber I have ever used is an old credit card. It doesn't scratch the service of pots & such.

shredded paper can be used as kitty litter. Paper shredders can be purchased cheaply, and you can protect credit card numbers & personal information by shredding them. Not even the best of thieves are going to go through the cat box to obtain your info.

I use amonia for most of my household cleaning its only 50 cents a bottle and goes much further than regular household cleaners it works on everything if your use it on upolstry or carpet do a spot test. Its the best toilet bowl cleaner ever

I'm going to start using amonia too for cleaning the floors because I have been going through so many mops by using bleach as it eats it away. It's funny that you mentioned this because I just read it in a magazine.

I use vingar instead of amonia to mop my floors. My Aunt who I do housekeeping for uses amonia and water and the smell almost kills me.
