Best Shower Cleaner Ever!


Simple! Simple! Simple!

I keep seeing blog posts and pinterest posts with a version of this shower cleaner. Everyone claims that it is the BEST. Well, I'm here to tell you that it is! I hate using smelly, chemical filled shower cleaners in our poorly ventelated bathroom, so I was eagar to give this a try.


Just mix equal parts vinegar and dish soap in a spray bottle (I used a funnel to prevent spilling). Spray on your shower and tub and after about 10 minutes wipe clean. It worked so well! No harsh chemicals, no smell and a fraction of the cost of most shower cleaning products!!

Save $$, Buy a Rotisserie Chicken

I have a friend who says that she won't buy the precooked rotisserie chickens at the grocery stores because they cost too much money. I disagree, I think that they actually help me save money!

After the hubby and I eat a meal from the chicken, I then pick the rest of the chicken for meat. Do people pick chicken anymore? My mom would always do this growing up to make sure that all of the meat was used.....people just aren't frugal anymore!

To prove my point, while picking this particular chicken I got out my 1 cup measuring cup to see how much extra meat I was able to get. This time I was able to get 4 cups!!!!!!!! of extra meat. I sectioned this off into plastic bags and stuck them in the freezer, perfect for adding to salads, chicken quesadillas and other meals at a later time.

For $5.99, I would say we got our money's worth!!
