August's Household Cleaning Tip
Looking for an inexpensive alternative to store-bought window cleaners?
2 cups water
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dishwashing liquid
Gently stir these three ingredients and pour the mixture into a squirt bottle. It does a great job of cleaning glass and mirrors, dries quickly, and costs a fraction of what you'd pay at the supermarket. And because it doesn't contain ammonia or alcohol, its a safer alternative for families that have small children and pets.

Thanks for the great tip. Being on a limited income these kinds of tips are very useful. That way I can save my money for the important things, such as books.

I love anything that cleans without using harmful chemicals, so thanks for this.
Hi, Linda. I think I speak for authors everywhere when I say we are so very appreciative of readers who want to buy books, even in tough times. I wish you many, many happy hours of reading enjoyment.
Ann, I try to avoid as many chemical cleaners as possible. Vinegar and baking soda are two of my favorite standbys.
Inexpensive, natural ingredients, don't have to waste time and gas to drive to town when I run out, and more money to spend on books! Sounds like a plan to me.
LOL, Pam! I hadn't thought of it in quite those terms, but it's sounding better and better :)
