I buy Ammonia and dilute it according to the instructions, it's a wonderful DO-ALL household cleaner. I save on buying Windex, Fantastik, Kitchen Degreasing products, etc.
I also buy a cloth rags at the local Trak Auto store, and use the rags instead of paper towels to clean around the house, especially windows, mirrors, counter tops, appliances, etc. Once they get dirty I just throw them in the wash and reuse.
I use sandwich box containers instead of sandwich bags. I also save the little ketchup packets from fast food chains to pack in my kid's hot dog lunch. I also save any other condiments they throw in like dipping sauces or sugar packets--for emergency uses.
