I have hardwood floors and vinegar and water is the best cleaner for it. Its gentle, does a great job and doesn't leave a film like soap based cleaners do. Baking soda and vinegar together is great for cleaning the tub, stove top (depending on the type of finish you have). Its actually great for so many household uses. @Natural Glad you like it! @Johanna Let me know how it goes! Its nice to hear from you too. :) @Nurit I use it for cleaning (along with some store brought products). I have hardwood floors and vinegar and water is the best cleaner for it.

I don't really miss it. the water here in Seattle are good and the clothes turn out soft without a sofetener. I would love to know more about the uses of more natural ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, etc etc. It is fascinating how these innocent products can help around. just like the other weoman who have commented, I don’t use frabic softener since my son was born 5.5 years ago.

I think it's great, I have told a few people to use it. Less expensive than the alternative and twice as good! I recently heard about vinegar and have used it several times.

If you dont have vinegar (or dont like the smell), baking soda works too. I find the vinegar works very well. If you dont have vinegar (or dont like the smell), baking soda works too.

I consider myself green, but I never even thought about the dryer sheets. I love them and use them all the time! Oops. I'll try the vinegar. Thanks so much for the eye-opener. Uh oh..
