There are many things in the grocery store that are just purely a waste of momey. Some of you are thinking, wait a minute- my wonderful Name Brand cleaner is definitely not a waste of money! I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that close to $5 spray bottle more than likely is made up of a good amount of water! Then add in some harmful chemicals, fragrance, and sometimes coloring and you have your amazing cleaner. Sounds worth the money doesn't it? Not. So here's a really simple recipe that will give you the same exact cleaning experience for less than $.50 a bottle! All the ingredients for this I also use in other types of cleaners around the house so it works great.
What you'll need:
Old Spray Bottle
2 tablespoons Distilled White Vinegar
2 teaspoons Borax
Hot Water
Couple drops of Mild Dish Soap
Few drops of Lemon Juice (Optional-gives scent)
How to mix:
- Fill your old spray bottle half way with hot water, add in the vinegar and Borax.
- Place the top on your spray bottle and shake well- about 30 seconds so the Borax dissolves.
- Remove the top and fill the bottle the rest of the way with more hot water. Once full add a couple drops of dish soap and your lemon juice. Instead of lemon juice you could also use any type of fragrance oil.
- Replace top, give a little shake, and your ready to clean!!
Enjoy :)
