Welcome to my Works For Me Wednesday post!

Since we have switched over to online bill paying we never use the envelopes that come with the paper bills.

I do my best to recycle what we can, so I was curious to see if there was a way to reuse those perfectly good envelopes.  Well, I found one!

When it’s time to go to the grocery I tuck my coupons inside the envelope and write my shopping list on the outside. There’s plenty of room for my list and my coupons don’t get lost in my purse, because they snugly tucked into the envelope!

I’m SO thankful for anything to help me stay organized, because I usually go shopping with my kids.  But, that’s another post in itself!

See you tomorrow for the tutorial on how to make a moss covered ball!

My Works For Me Wednesday tip is…

Frugal, Non Toxic, Germ Killing Cleaner!

Take two bottles; fill one with peroxide (from the drugstore) and fill the the other with white vinegar.

Spray one then the other, in no particular order, and wipe with a paper towel or cloth.

This spray is non toxic and it kills all the nasties better than straight bleach!

You can use it on your cutting boards, counters, sinks, plastic toys, in the bathroom, and also as a fruit and veggie wash!

“To help kill bacteria such as E. Coli on fruits and vegetables, add a quarter cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide to a sink full of cold water. immerse, rinse with cold water and drain. By killing bacteria this will also help keep fruit and vegetables fresher for longer. You can also use a spray bottle containing a 50/50 mix of 3% hydrogen peroxide and water – just spray and rinse.”
