    I bought a yoghurt maker (actually Mum bought it for me as I told her to look out for one at the boot sales) because I didn't fancy having to keep buying the Easiyo sachets. I did use to make my yoghurt in a thermos placed in the airing cupboard but I forgot all about it the last time as I can't see the top of my airing cupboard.

    l'il me - I bought mine at Julian Graves at our local Gardening Centre but Easiyo do have a website so you can find out where to get them near to you:-

    moggins - you don't *need* the sachets to make yogurt in the Easiyo!!!!! :D

    Queenie I did discover that afterwards but I do love the 7 little glass pots mine came with. It means I can just shove individual yoghurts in the fridge. Plus I didn't pay anything for it. As soon as Mum discovered I was looking for one she went and bought me one brand new!! I am never one to look a gift horse in the mouth :D

    Bought my last pans from the re cycling centre. One is big enough to do a stew/soup in and the other is about a litre capacity, cost 50p. They're cream enamel with a blue trim so they look really good in my kitchen and have been admired by many! (Can't buy them any more) Also, since my daughter started using eco friendly, home made household cleaners, her hubby's sinusitis has disappeared. No more nasty chemical allergens for him!

    Just bought microfibre cloths as I have everything else I need already (except stardrops, but I won't buy them till I have used up all the chemicals under the sink...:rolleyes: )

    Not sure why I bought the microfibre cloths though - not quite sure what to do with them :confused:

    Microfibre cloths are great for cleaning anything in the house - floor, window, worktops, bathroom, windows. They work better than normal cotton/terry type cloths. Only thing I would say is you need a dry one too, to wipe and dry off.
