I’d like to say I do this for a noble cause.

Because it’s better for the earth. Safer for my kids. They clean better.

All of those reasons ARE true.

But the main reason I started was money.

These suckers are a lot cheaper in the long run.

The last item I’ve added to my revenue was laundry detergent.

My husband was skeptical all along. On some days he still is.  In the end? I keep doing it because they work. Because I’m not spending scads of dollars every week buying MORE cleaning supplies that are harsh on my nose and eyes and hands.

Now if only I could find a great toilet cleaner I’d be a very happy woman.

In a couple of days I’ll go into more detail about a few of them. Mainly the laundry detergent (the saver of my HE washer) and my all purpose cleaners.
