Frugal First Aid?

I didn't know about vinegar for chemical burns, but then again, most burns I get are from when I am cooking..lol If you want something frugal, but also beneficial not just for burns, (burns like I get, from a hot stove) but also good for cleaning the air. That is an aloe vera plant and trust me, I have a low tolerance of pain, so when I find something that takes the pain away, I stick with it and using the juice of this plant not only is good for the burn, but it removes the pain like no store bought burn medication ever has. Which leads me to your neosporin. When I had three children 3 years apart, that meant going through lots of bandaids and antibiotic ointment and at the time, I believe it was 4-5 dollars a tube.. So I went comparison shopping and if you have a dollar store or general dollar store, they carry their brand name for 2.50, though when my kids were younger, it was only 2 dollars, what a savings!!! and it worked as well as the name brand stuff.. So if there is a store near you, perhaps you can find other first aid for a lot less.. I hope I helped you a little...:)

I use home made balms made with calendula or plantain for many things, and vinegar to neutralise stings, but otherwise my first aid kit is a pretty sparse version of a standard one. I have bandages, tape and wound dressings, oxygenated water, painkillers .... and not much else.

I would put in a pair of Scissors and school supplies are on sale at many stores. Its the best time of year to buy cheaply. Good luck with your kit. I would also suggest adding water to your kit, as many people forget water.
