Does anyone have any tips to share or favorite cleaning products?
I LOVE Clorox clean up. That stuff works great.
My tip is for stainless steel sinks: to brighten and remove any stains and make it look brand new mix baking soda with some lemon juice and add some seltzer to form a paste. Use a paper towel and rub the paste into the metal in circle motions. Let it sit for a few minutes and then rinse and towel off. You can also water down the paste and pour it down the drain to deodrize the drain. It works great.

Has anyone tried the new allergen reducer febreeze? I'm thinking of getting it to help DH out, we have cats and he's always sneezing....

Luke uses the Clorox spray on everything but doesnt wipe it up properly and I end up bleaching out my clothing! (he does it to his too but doesnt realize how).

So Clorox is banned from our house :D

I am loyal to Murphy's Oil for cleaning spots on the carpet. For anyone who has cats, it works great to clean up after them when they get sick.....sorry to be gross, but it works!

Also Liquid Gold polish for furniture. My stepmom's DR set was her mom's and is over 50 years old. It still looks brand new because they swear by that stuff. It makes everything polish beautifully.

I spray febreeze on everything. I have FI pick up Febreeze at BJ's because I go through it like crazy.

I could be on a febreeze commercial of those crazy people who spray it, leave their house then rush back in to smell it to see if its still their.

Febreeze is definatly a great invention.

I just got into the glade air freshners that you can plug into the wall and its also got the extra outlet on it. I got summer breeze or something with a night light and I love it. I have it in the bedroom and its so light and up lifting.

I just love that fresh clean scent (I know I am weird)

You're not weird Chippa-i'm the same way. I am obsessed with having my place smell clean! I use febreze, carpet freshners, and the plug-in's---I love the clean breeze scent. I go by the seasons-in the fall I love the 'Apple Spice' scent, Christmas time is 'Grandma's Cookies' scent, spring and summer I use 'Clean Breeze' and the berry scented one---I think i'm the one who's crazy!
