vinegar

I always keep a gallon of clear vinegar around. It's so handy for more than just foods! I used it the other night to unclog my bathtub drain. We plunged and stuff, but it was still clogged. So, I packed the drain with baking soda, then poured vingegar down. It makes kind of like a little bubbly volcano hahaha. But you know what, that's all it took to clear the drain. Much safer, easier, and cheaper, than those chemicals you buy for the same purpose. It works good for athletes foot and for dandruff. When I was still married that was the only thing that would work on him for either of those problems, and it worked well! Once every couple of weeks I use diluted vinegar and rinse my hair after shampooing it. (Before putting in the creme rinse) I have baby fine hair and for some reason that shampoo just seems to build up every time I use it, even though I rinse well. It leaves the hair super shiny, and also takes care of the 'product' build-up. I'd be lost without my good ole vinegar!

its good for getting the smell of cat urine out of carpet and upholstry too.
