Fairy Liquid/micro fibre cloths

They are the biggest money saver of all time. Micro fiber cloths are amazing and you can get three for under a £1 at tescos and they wash and wash. I use hot water and fairly liquid to clean everything, the bathroom, kitchen, walls, paintwork. I rarely buy other cleaners at all, only some ecover toilet cleaner.

Hot water and fairy liquid on a plastic bath will make it look like new.

All this ant-bacterial stuff is rubbish, hot water and soap kills most germs.

It's even cheaper if you don't use Fairy Liquid and use a non brand washing up liquid.

Even better is to use Stardrops, lasts forever.

Where can I get stardrops from MrsGok

I get mine from Wilkinsons but I have seen them in my local Morrisons and Sainsburys.

I just dilute it into a spray bottle and use it for everything.

I rescued some patio furniture that looked revolting but a bit of neat Stardrops and it's like new. The neighbour who threw it out wouldn't believe me it was the same set

Great I'll get searching Thanks

I have tried alot of the generic type washing up liquid inlcuding eco-ver. I find that the performance of Fairy and how long it lasts far outwieghs the saving of say 50p.

Also gerneric ones make my hands get dematitis.

Fairy was on special offer recently in Morrisons so I have stocked up. I have enough to last me a couple of years
