    If you use cleansing wipes cut them in half (half is plenty) BUT then before you throw them away use them to give your bathroom basin a quick wipe


    Never thought of using them for wiping the basin around.

    Many thanks for that.

    Yours

    In the winter you can stop your car door lock freezing by putting a fridge magnet over it, especially if you do it in the early evening

    Freeze your favourite drinks in ice cube trays so that if you can add to drinks later on, without watering them down with plain ice

    ie. tea for iced tea, fruit infusions, fruit juices, even fizzy drinks

    (Haven't tried it with G&T etc, but would probably still work :))

    Chop your onions in one go, freeze them in a thin layer on a baking tray and put in a resealable bag so they are there ready for when you need them.

    Always ask yourself "can I make this myself?" - I have started to make home made bread, rolls, jam,pizza and laundry gloop.

    I also use vinegar as a rinse aid and fabric conditioner and cut a dishwasher tablet in half before I use it so get them for half price.

    Use up any old cheapish perfume sprays (that are past their best) as air fresheners.
