Costco and Sam's. I've managed to replace window/kitchen & bath counter cleaner (1 pump dish detergent to a half cup vinegar, filled in spray pump bottle with water) to great effect. Lot of $$savings just there by replacing three products. And if your pottery type "crock pot" or other glass/crockery cookware is looking dull and dingy, wash and scrub as you normally would and then soak in a fairly strong vinegar solution for a few hours and rinse. Looks brand new, once again.

I hate the smell of white vinegar, but love the effects (and the money savings).

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]There are plenty of us who already use it by the gallon, and new uses are always welcome!

I will have to study this more closely. I love that it is cheap, easy to use, doesn't hurt the environment or my hands!

Thanks for posting.

Hi,
I just checkout link. It really contain very nice information.
The 3 things I use it for most are:
1. As a rinse after shampooing my hair (I'm in an area with really hard water) - the smell goes away when I blow-dry
2. Spray it on furniture and carpets after a party before I go to bed, in the morning the smells are gone
3. To decaled taps, the shower door and the windows that I keep forgetting to do.
