Stain removers etc. I use head and shoulders shampoo to get out tough stains on clothes. It really works! Try using toothpaste on your pimples before you go to bed. Be careful if you have sensitive skin. Some toothpastes can burn. Try crest...Peel onions under running cold water to stop watery eyes. My grandparents had millions of them. These are the ones I still use today. Please share your little secrets....dl

Bicarbonate of soda will clean your fridge without leaving a smell ,after you wipe the worst of the inside of the fridge put some bicarb in a bowl with a clean cloth wipe the inside of the fridge and watch the marks come off.Also if you fall over and bruise your self bicarb in a bowl of water and dab the bruise It will get the bruising out a lot quicker and stop it hurting so much.Vinegar in a drop of water in will clean your windows better than anything else.If you paint your rooms put a chopped peeled onion in the room and it will take the smell of paint away.Cannot think of any thing else at the moment.

Thanks Suzzy! You gave me alot of helpful hints. I didnt know about the peeled onion in the middle of the room. Will it smell like onion? I am going to wash my windows tomorrow with the water and vinegar. All of them were good.I have decided to make up a small notebook with all of the helpful hints. Thanks again.If you ever hear anymore please send me a message. dl

The onion masks the smell of the wet paint.I would not have an onion cut up normally it would stink,

Use Vicks on toenail fungus and it will be gone in a couple of months....even the prescription brand doesn't work that well!

Serving raw onions? rinse them under cold water after chopping to calm their taste. I use fels naptha soap to remove stains, if that doesn't get it out it won't come out. I also use this for poison oak or ivy to remove the oil from your skin.
