Cut Your Grocery Bill In Half! with Stephanie Nelson, The Coupon Mom

It’s Spring again, and while the promise of warmer weather is near, it also means it is time for SPRING CLEANING! Don’t DREAD the annual clean up – we have put together 7 ways to hack your toughest messes without breaking the bank! 

1. Remove Pet Hair

Pet hair sticks to everything! An easy way to quickly and easily clean pet off of furniture is with your lint roller or a roll of tape! Roll up tape sticky side out, slip it over your hand and run over your furniture – or- simply use a clean lint roller and roll over your furniture! We also suggest vacuuming first to get the loose hair.  

2.  Garbage Disposal Smell

When your garbage disposal begins to have a funny smell – just head to your pantry! Grab 1 cup of vinegar, ½ cup of baking soda and mix it together with some warm water! Pour it down the drain and smell the difference!

3. Get Rid of Hard Water Stains

Getting rid of hard water stains has NEVER been easier. All you need is apple cider vinegar and a microfiber cloth! Just pour the apple cider vinegar onto the cloth and rub the hard water stain until it disappears!

4. Clean Dirty Grout

Clean even the toughest of grout stains with a little hydrogen peroxide and baking soda! Just grab a toothbrush to really scrub every nook and cranny.

5. Clean Tricky Blinds

You may feel ridiculous while doing this hack – but it works! Grab kitchen tongs and two old (but clean!) socks! Pull the socks over each of the tongs and you have created the ultimate blind cleaning tool! The tongs will help you reach in awkward places to really clean off your blinds while the socks help trap all of the dust.

6. Disinfect Your Sponge!

To quickly and easily disinfect your sponge – wring it out and microwave it for 1 minute on high!

7. Clean Your Shower head

Fill a sandwich bag with vinegar and place it over your shower head so that it completely covers the head. Next, use a rubber band to secure it in place. Leave this over night for maximum clean!
