Giveaway Results: $150 Clean + Green Cleaning Products

no paper towels here-we use microfiber towels and hang them on the line after washing-they dry very quickly and are great for pet and kid cleanups.

One thing we do in our home to keep it clean and green is recycling, it teaches our children about reusing things for other purposes and not putting so much in the trash! We also use vinegar with water for most of our cleaning! Thanks for the opportunity!!!

this is awesome stuff

I use a steamer mop which has eliminated my need to put chemicals on my floor and my floor feels cleaner than it ever did.

We’ve mostly gotten rid of paper towels, too. It was a hard push at first to get the beau to quit taking a paper towel for everything but now he’s far more likely to reach for a microfiber cloth or a dish rag. Success!

What an awesome giveaway! I love it!

We make our own dishwashing detergent and all-purpose cleaner. We’re also experimenting with using reusable baby wipes (but not for the poo diapers…I just can’t go there!)

We stopped using paper towels about 3 years ago, recycle everything we can & use reusable shopping bags.

We’ve been using homemade daily shower cleaner and I Just made my first batch of all purpose cleaner too. And after we run out of paper towels, that will be the last roll that we buy.

we use things like vinegar and baking soda to clean as much as possible. My mom would love this package as she has many little critters at her house.

This would be awesome! I’m never sure what to use to clean the floor when our dog or a child has an accident!

I mop with water, Borax and a splash of lemon essential oil. Especially now that my daughter’s crawling, I don’t want toxic stuff coating the floor!

We use old toothbrushes to clean the bathroom with!

We only use cloth napkins and wash them instead of paper towels. We also compost, recycle everything under the sun and only produce 1 kitchen garbage bag of trash a week!

We compost and I use cloth bags at the grocery store.

Paper towels only when I HAVE TO(the yuck factor ) we use white (bleachable) cotton towels for all the normal cleaning,

I use vinegar to clean almost everything in my house! I also brush my teeth with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide.

We recycle and reuse anything we can. I clean my shower with old toothbrushes and dryer sheets I already used in the laundry. We also use energy efficient appliances.

I use vinegar as a cleaner but also as my detergent softener rinse in my front load washer. Not only does it save on pollutants put into the waste system it is great for cutting the soap out of our clothes.

This product sounds wonderful. We have 2 little girls, a cat, dog and guinea pig in our house so it sounds like something that I need to try.

I only use Mrs. Meyers products for cleaning. They are great.

We have cancelled our paper and use vinegar to help with the cleaning.

I use a lot of vinegar for cleaning, and also make my own laundry detergent! This giveaway looks great! Thanks!

I use a lot of baking soda and vinegar and one tip a friend gave me – whole cloves in the vacuum bag.

We use a lot of vinegar, borax, and baking soda for everything from laundry to homemade dishwasher detergent!

We are using fewer paper towels and more rags for cleaning and wiping up spills.

We use homemade cleaners and I put baking soda in the dishwasher to clean it out and in the stinky laundry.

DH clean our hardwood with vinegar and water. I make my own dishwashing soap.

I re-use plastic spray bottles and try to buy larger containers that can be mixed and refilled in the spray bottles.

Would love to try all these products!

We only use natural and organic products in our yard and garden, that way nothing yucky but dirt is tracked into the house by my family or my pets!

Weuse a steam mop which works great and the kids love using it so I get them to help with the floors and I can do something else!!

Vinegar and baking soda are a life saver! We also recycle. We have recently bought (USED) energy star appliances!

I use socks with holes to clean nasty things I do not want to wash out of rags, then toss. I use vinegar in the washing machine and as a cleaner and we are seriously using less paper towels.

I often use baking soda and lemon juice to clean with. These sound like a great product to use around little ones.

We use vinegar and water and also use microfiber or cloth towels instead of paper towels.

we recycle like crazy! I need to get into the green cleaning products…this would help!

I would love to go green! This looks like great stuff to get me started!

I am always looking for natural products in my cupboards I can use. Baking soda, borax, vinegar, all used in a variety of ways: laundry booster, dishwasher rinse aid, floor cleaner, etc. Love non-toxic products!

We recycle everything we can. Newspapers are great for cleaning windows and bedding for the rabbit hutch.

We use a clothes line as long as we can in warmer months and use cold water to wash clothes.

what a great giveaway.

We use vinegar, baking soda and lemon juice as much as we can to clean. I’m not sure if this one counts but we reuse food containers and boxes for art projects.

We use old cloth diapers for dusting and other chores.

We recycle. I know it probably seems small, but you have to start somewhere! That’s why having green cleaning products would help!

Go green…save green.

The above comments are all great.
When I’m running hot water, I collect the cold that comes out first (I think my pipes take the scenic route!) and use it for watering the plants.

i reuse the sponges that i wash dishes with for messier jobs once they are worn out. i also reuse toothbrushes for scrubbing difficult places. vinegar is something i clean with sometimes. thanks or the chance!!!

We use vinegar for fabric softener, use baking soda or vinegar for much cleaning. Watching garage sales for cloth napkins. Bought used/slightly damaged front load washer! Some of these products we’d keep, some we’d donate to a friend who is starting a pet rescue and as of yet, it’s still in her house!

We use as many ‘chemical free’ cleaners as I’m able to afford–my favorite are good sponges and old toothbrushes for scrubbers. I like the ‘magic erasers,’ I hope they are chemical free–I think they are?!?

Vinegar for fabric softener, deoderizer. Baking soda or vinegar for cleaning. Cloth napkins purchased from garage sales slowly replacing paper napkins. Steaming carpets with water only. Water savers on all shower heads. Heat pump on water heater. Fireplace during colder months instead of cranking thermostat.

I’m big on the reusable shopping bags, I won’t use plastic at all anymore. We also don’t use paper towels, I use cloth instead on cleaning pretty much everything in the house, that way I can wash it and reuse.

We do all the small things save bags re use , we turn off lights,any thing to save a 1 and help be better people in the world.

To keep our home ‘clean & green’ we recycle, use a compost pile to create mulch for our flower beds and have been trying to incorporate more ‘green cleaning supplies’ into our routines – like vinegar, baking soda, etc.

We clean up the yard in the summer with white vinegar to kill the weeds it kills the weeds and isn’t harm full to the environment

Recycle, recycle, recycle.
no toxic cleaners in this house, we use alot of vinagar! we also use microfiber towels to clean instead of paper, and changes all of our light bulbs to green ones.

I use a “Gleen” cleaning cloth for alot of my cleaning and do not use paper towels either. I do use alot of rags that I can just rewash and reuse over and over again. I always try to buy Eco-friendly items.

When I can’t fully remove the remains of baked-on food from a glass pot or pan, I partially fill it with white vinegar, zap it for a couple of minutes in the microwave, let it soak for about ten minutes, and THEN scrub.

Our family recycles, use canvas shopping bags and use vinegar for various cleaning.

To keep our house clean and green we try to use organic cleaners as much as possible! We look for chemical free options rather than harsh cleaners and do not use paper towels or paper napkins.

Since I have a newborm in the house, I have become sensitive to the fumes used in everyday cleaning products. Instead of using dusting spray, I use the attatchment on my vaccum cleaner to dust EVERYTHING. It not only helps the environment but our budget as well.

We grow our own produce and do not use harsh chemicals. We also recycle what we can and ALWAYS turn the lights off when we don’t need them!

We are big recyclers. Once we started recycling anything we could we realized how much less trash we send to the curb!

One thing my family and i do is recycle and reuse everthing, cutting the tops off plastic bottles works great as cylinders and the bottoms are good for storing things, we use cold water whenever possiable and donate what others can use.. every little bit counts..

We recycle soda cans from anywhere that we can find them. We crush and then sell. We send the money to needy children around the world.

I couldn’t live without my vinegar, baking soda & EO’s. Reusable shopping bags are the greatest. Clean green would be great for my house as we have an aging kitty who is not liking his litter box anymore. I can’t find anything to help clean his new “potty” spot in the basement.

One thing I do to keep my home clean AND green is using old t-shirts and socks as rags. I have never purchased a Swiffer & don’t need to. An old t-shirt over an old mop head does the work, saves $$ and the environment and I can wash it & reuse it again & again.

I cut up several old towels into wash rags that I use to clean up my son after meals, instead of paper towels. Works well!

Our biggest thing is no paper napkins. With two toddlers we would go through so many napkins so we use cloth. We also use them for paper towel substitutes. We also use green cleaning products which is nice for when the girls want to help clean. I don’t need them near the chemicals.
