How to save money on cleaning supplies

[sweeps]

Never clean your house again.

That sounds perfect to me! I hate housework!

I use only a few cleaners. Buy some empty spray bottles at the dollar store. I label them and use Murphy's Oil soap (love the smell) and an ammonia based cleaner such as Pine-sol for the other bottle bottle. Add a few caps and dilute. It will last a long time and go a long way. I also use bleach for cleaning and dilute it into a bucket of water when I need it. It doesn't seem to work in the spray bottle as it seems to eventually clog up the sprayer.
Those are pretty much all the cleaners I need. I use the Murphy's on the floors, wood, tables, etc. I use the Pinesol on the kitchen, bathroom, etc. And, the bleach for things that really need a good disinfection. Of course, you don't want to mix any of these.
I would like to just quit cleaning all together! But, I guess that is just a dream we all have!

i clean with the same cleaners as cschin4... but, mostly i steam clean with my europro steam cleaner and old rags.... makes the house smell fresh without chemicals.

Yah for me. For years my family would tut tut about the amount of dust lying around the house. Now I can tell them that I only had my families health and well being in mind.

I have heard of this kind of study...

The only thing I am crazy about is vacuuming the floors, cleaning in the kitchen (especially when raw chicken is onvolved) and cleaning out my cat's litter box.
