1 - Place vinegar in a small bowl and place it on a counter to reduce cigarette smell, etc.
2 - Mix 1 tsp of vinegar with 1 tsp of liquid detergent to remove stains from carpet. Blot the mixture on the stain with a towel and gently rub. Rinse the spot with clean water. Repeat until stain is gone. Dry using a fan or hair dryer.
3 - Remove the sticky gunk (that's a technical term, BTW) after a label is peeled off by soaking a cloth in full strength vinegar and then placing the cloth over the gunk for several minutes.
4 - Use vinegar and water to clean your shower, bathroom fixtures, etc. to kill germs and just generally de-nasty it. For stubborn stains, add blue Dawn dish detergent in a spray bottle. Spray on the surface and let sit for 30 minutes before rinsing.
5 - Run vinegar through your coffee maker to get rid of little nasties.
6 - Deodorize your kitchen (or bathroom) sink. Pour 1 cup of vinegar down drain. Let sit for 30 minutes and then rinse cold water down the drain.
7 - Speaking of drains....if you have a clogged drain, pour baking SODA into the drain and then add white vinegar. Let it bubble and do its thing. Then flush with hot water.
8 - Use equal parts of vinegar and water to clean your fridge.
9 - Put 1/4 cup vinegar and 1 cup water into a microwave safe bowl. Put the bowl into the microwave and run for approximately 2-3 minutes (or until water is steaming). This will loosen the nasties in your microwave so you can wipe them out.
10 - Get clothing cleaner and deodorized. Add 1 cup of vinegar to each load of laundry when putting it into the washing machine.
11 - Remove underarm perspiration stains by using 1 part vinegar to 4 parts water solution. Blot directly on stain and then rinse.
12 - Cold weather is coming, so store this somewhere you will remember. Coat your windshield with a solution of 3 parts vinegar and 1 part water at night. This will keep your windshield free of frost in the morning.
13 - You've been putting off laundry for 2 weeks now, your roommate burned some popcorn, and your room/apartment just has a funk about it. Take an empty spray bottle, fill it almost to the top with white vinegar and then add 10 drops or so of ESSENTIAL oil. Use this as you would any odor neutralizing spray.
14 - If you have a dishwasher and it gets a case of the nasties....put a cup of white vinegar in a dishwasher safe glass and then place this into an empty dishwasher. Run this through a normal cycle. This will wash away the grease, gunk, odors, etc.
