Maintaining a household can be very expensive, and when children come into the picture, it can be time consuming, expensive and exhausting to manage the budget, and the cleaning supplies. These tips can help to cut down on costs, while still ensuring that the same levels of cleanliness are maintained.
1. Cleaning materials: Get the stain while its fresh
Clean up spills and stains as quickly as possible. Leaving stains to soak or dry will make them much harder to remove later on, and will then probably require some chemical assistance to lift them. Seeing to a mess as soon as possible after it's made is an important part in budget control (and sweat control) as marks and stains are more easily removed if they have just happened. Usually it only takes a wet rag and some dishwashing liquid to lift most stains if they are fresh. At most it might take a little scrubbing.
2. Cleaning materials: The magic of dishwashing liquid
Dishwashing liquid is an amazing substance which is greatly undervalued and underutilised, considering its potential abilities. It can be used as a laundry stain remover, a general all purpose gel, it can be used on all the surfaces, it can be used to wash vegetables and fruit, it cleans windows beautifully and it can lift stains out of carpets. And to think, most people only use it to wash dishes. Dishwashing liquid has powerful drawing abilities, meaning it can draw out the dirt from in between crevices and from inside cloth.
3. Cleaning materials: The miracle of Bicarb
Bicarbonate of soda can be purchased from any grocery store for a very low price. It can also be used as a multipurpose cleaning agent. It is fantastic for cleaning porcelain. You can also sprinkle it over your toothpaste on the toothbrush to help whiten teeth naturally.
4. Dispensers and concentrates
Buy a dishwashing liquid dispenser. Your dishwashing liquid could last three times longer. A dispenser will ensure that the rate at which you use your dishwashing liquid is not dependent on how hard you squeeze the bottle, it will dispense an equal amount of liquid each time. Also make an effort to buy concentrated mixes of cleaning products rather than ready to use. Premix some that is ready to be used and save the bottle of concentrate that is left over. Ensure that there is always premixed product that is ready to use to prevent other family members burning through the concentrated mix too fast.
5. Quality over price
On the topic of saving money on cleaning materials, definitely use quality products that are slightly more expensive, than cheap products. The fact of the matter is that better quality products will last longer, and clean better, and save you time, effort and money in the long run.
