TODAY'S THRIFTY TIP:


Freshen Laundry

Save yourself the occasional load of laundry by freshening up your clothes with vodka. If an item is relatively clean but just a little 'worn' simply spritz it with the vodka, then hang to dry in a well-ventilated area. Vodka kills odor-causing bacteria, but doesn't leave a scent when dry.


Preserve Flowers

Add a few drops of vodka and a teaspoon of sugar to the water in your flower vase. It should help keep your flowers fresh longer. Change out the mixture with fresh ingredients daily.


Clean Away Mold

Got mold? The stuff spreads easily and can severely diminish indoor air quality. Instead of harsh chemical sprays, try filling a recycled spray bottle with some bottom-shelf vodka. Spritz on, then let sit for 15 minutes and scrub away.


Deodorize your feet

Foot odor is caused by bacteria and, or fungus. This is normally a consequence of trapping our sweaty feet in shoes and socks all day. Soaking your feet in a dilute solution of vodka (once again, might as well use the cheap stuff for this) and water will give them a deep clean and deodorize them.
