Need to remember this ... so many clothes I thought were ruined... Chalk will remove grease stains from clothes. Simply rub the stain with chalk, then toss in the wash as normal.

Unclogging Drains Hair and goo can build inside your sink causing your drains to empty slowly, giving you something else to contend with during your bathroom cleaning ritual. Drop a couple of alka seltzer tablets into a slow drain and follow with a vinegar chaser. After a few minutes, rinse with hot water. Your drain will be as good as new. Would you like another bathroom cleaning tip? Baking soda will not only clear up clogged drains, but it will also keep them smelling fresh.

Use cheapy floor tiles from Lowes or Dollar General not only for under the sink, but as shelf liner. More durable than shelf paper and about the same price. The cheap, thin tiles cut easily with scissors.

How to get your dirty whites clean again... HOT HOT HOT water, 1 cap of laundry detergent, 1 cup powdered dish washer detergent, 1 cup bleach, 1/2 cup borax. you have to rewash it once to put softener in but it's the whitest you'll ever see your whites. If you omit the bleach it works great to get stains out of colors too (baby spit up is no longer a stain on OLD clothes)

Mindy (Rindy Mae) They're building one of these at The Kid's school. I'm excited to check it out.

If you ruin a brush with dried paint, just soak it in Murphy Oil for 24 to 48 hours and it dissolves all the paint and makes it like new

add floetrol by sherwin williams to your paint when painting furniture or cabinets and it will take away all of those brush stroke marks and leave the paint smooth.

Mindy (Rindy Mae) I haven't been able to find this.

This long-forgotten gem of a cleaning agent may be used with a little water or vinegar to lift even the most stubborn stains. Unattractive grout driving you batty? Mold and mildew stains got you reaching for the Prozac? Burner pans and casserole dishes giving you fits? Cream of Tartar is your new best friend.

Cover bottom of oven with baking soda, then pour vinegar so it's all wet. Let sit around 20 minutes or so then wipe all of it out with damp cloth or sponge. I leave my oven door open too. After drying you may see some white residue, wipe again.

The only SPOT REMOVER you may ever need ~ Mix one part Dawn dish washing liquid with two parts hydrogen peroxide; pour or spray it directly on the stain, and watch it disappear like MAGIC...when you're housetraining a dog (or a toddler), this might come in handy.

I don't spend 15-18$ on Atrac-Tain Moisturizing Cream. I wipe my heals with a Strident pad, slather on some petroleum jelly, put on a pair of socks, and go to bed. The effect is the same...

Instead of pepper spray, wasp spray will shoot 20 feet and is very accurate.

Takes the dead skin right off. All you need is shaving cream and Listerine
