Safe By Using Vinegar To Clean Your Home Versus Chemical Cleaners
Did you ever think about the cost difference of using vinegar to clean your home versus chemical cleaners. If you are like most of us and have to watch your money you will find vinegar to be a simple but effective way to leave more money in your pocket.
When you walk through the cleaning aisle in the super market you can find a specialized product for almost about any cleaning task that you may have in your home. From window cleaners to stain removers, tile cleaners and grime dissolvents, stainless steel cleaner, oven cleaners and many, many more.
But it all comes at a price. These cleaners maybe more convenient but you typically pay between $8 and $12 per bottle. And at these prices it adds up really quick.
Let’s just say you are buying a window cleaner, a floor cleaner, a bathroom tile cleaner and a bath tub cleaner, a grime and lime remover and a stainless steel cleaner. So you are looking at 6 different cleaners at an average cost of $10. You just spend $60 on cleaning agents and we only listed a few. Now repeat that every 2 months as you are running out of cleaners and we are looking at $360 a year.
Let’s go to another aisle in the supermarket. If you go the aisle were you can find oils, dressings and vinegar you will see that you can buy a gallon of vinegar for under $5. The cheapest vinegar will do for cleaning so don’t worry about brands or anything. Just choose the cheapest you can find.
Just as the professional cleaners will last for two months, your gallon of vinegar will also last you for two months. The big difference is that you only spend a little over $25 for all your cleaning needs per year.
This adds up to savings of over $330 per year or just under $30 a month. With that savings you can have nice BBQ with your family and friends once a month and still enjoy a clean and tidy home.
You are not sure vinegar can do the job. Just ask your grandmother or even your mother. Vinegar has been used for hundreds of years for almost any cleaning task including keeping hospitals clean. Compare it yourself. Use vinegar to remove lime buildup around your shower heads. Clean one side with vinegar and then clean the other side with a commercial lime build up remover. Once you are done you won’t see the difference.
Fill a spray bottle with one half vinegar and one half warm water. Spray it on your window and dry it with a paper towel. Use a commercial cleaner on the window next to it. Can you see the difference?
Saving money on things that are not necessary is especially important today. A simple way is to consider the cost difference of using vinegar to clean your home versus chemical cleaners.
