Baking soda is great for cleaning!

Instead of using expensive cleaning products, try using baking soda.

It's an all around cleaning solution and non abrasive. Cleans the outside of a refrigerator very well and takes the yellow away if you have white goods. Some people say they even use it instead of softener for clothes.

It is also good to take the bugs off the car. And it will help if you have an accident on the road - putting out a small fire.
