Any chance we can have a sticky post just for vinegar.. it takes hours to go through all the references to it to see if someone has covered your suggestion already... only for vinegar though.
Please.

    Read my mind. Just bought first bottle of white vinegar to use instead of fabric conditioner and wondering when I would have time to search for all those other ideas.

    Yes please! Have just bought my vinegar ready to try out all the ideas on here. :)

    I think it'll be a good idea too.

    I do spend a lot of time on this forum so i know where quite a lot of the ideas are, but for some of the newbies it would save a lot of time for them :D

    Count me in please. Vinegar always appears somewhere. Would be great to have all the tips together in one place, especially for newbies.

    PLEASE!

    The number of stickies "allowed" on each board is limited or the first page of each board would be full of stickies and no posts.

    The Save Zillions thread here contains all of the vinegar tips and plenty of other suggestions for cleaning. Each thread can now run for plenty of pages and if you run a search for something you can state which thread, user and board to find what you are looking for.

    Its nice to see that some threads have withstood the move from yabb and the test of time and still so popular and this particular one is a credit to Rachelle who started the post in September 2003 ;)

    I agree Edi'lass and on some boards there are so many stickies that mean the daily posts don't stay on the front page very long and often get missed. I don't know about anyone else, but I often find the stickies to be a bit of a blind spot too as my eyes automatically scan down the page to the first non-sticky thread and I often miss posts in the stickies :o ... (not so much on this board as I read every thread here, but certainly on other boards of lesser interest).

    I'm pretty sure I remember Judi telling me we're limited to five per board. I think you'd have to ask for a Vinegar Board :)

    Edit: Actually I've just checked and we have four. Thing is I'm sure that Judi bumped one so she could sticky the congratulations post when I got promoted to junior apprentice assistant board guide and I don't know if she's put everything back in order yet. :)

    I'm sure she'll be along shortly...

    That sounds like a good idea Judi- to include non-vinegar cleaning as well. Would it be sensible to include personal care as well - ie 'alternative' beauty products - muslin cloth and the like?
