You'll get 30 Swag Bucks just for signing up. 450 Swag Bucks will get you a $5 Amazon gift certificate, but if Amazon isn't your thing they have lots of new gift card options!

Cheap and Green Clean: All Purpose Cleaner

For those of you who don't know me... I can be a little bit of clean freak, but I don't like to spend a lot on cleaning products. Well, except for Magic Erasers. With five messy little boys in the house, I've found those things to be worth every penny!

A couple years ago when I was looking for a kid-friendly cleaner for my children to clean with, I came across this frugal recipe. We have been using it ever since and I am very pleased with the results. It's basically an all-purpose cleaner (similar to Formula 409). I have used it on just about everything. [Disclaimer: I do not have stainless steel appliances or granite counter tops so I'm not sure how it'd work on those.]

All Purpose Cleaner Recipe:
2 T. white vinegar
1 T. Borax
2 T. Dawn dish soap
1 cup hot water, plus water to fill rest of container
Triggered Spray Bottle (got ours at the Dollar Tree)

Mix vinegar, borax and hot water in spray bottle. Fill bottle almost to the top with water. Then add Dawn dish soap. Gently rotate the bottle to mix. If you shake it you'll make lots of suds!

If you're not cleaning a really dirty or greasy surface, I've found that you can dilute this even a little bit further. I usually make a double batch in a recycled 64 oz. plastic juice container and it still works great. I just refilled the spray bottle as needed. Although the ingredients are all non-toxic, I did mark the spray bottle with the ingredients just in case.

Reminder: $2 Marcus Movie

This week Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 10am you can see Hop for just $2! Get more details and see the summer schedule here.

Heads Up! No Coupon Inserts (Maybe?)

UPDATE: GB Savers reader Melissa and Lisa from Couponing Central both let me know that there will, in fact, be a P&G insert in this Sunday's paper! Guess there is nothing more American than coupons... besides apple pie and baseball, of course!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Since it is a holiday weekend there are no coupon inserts scheduled to be in the paper this weekend. If you buy papers just for the coupons... you can take a week off! Maybe. I say maybe because... there have been a few rumors that there may be a P&G insert this weekend. I haven't been able to find out for certain, so if you might want to check before buying a paper.

If you ever want to take a sneak peek at what inserts are scheduled just head over to Sunday Coupon Preview.

Another friendly reminder, even though Dollar Tree no longer carries the Green Bay Press Gazette you can still get if for only $1 at the following stores:

Tracy's Groceries 832 S. Military Ave. (Sunday hours 10am and 6:00pm). If you can't make it in on Sunday, give her a call at 920-498-0926 and she will save copies for you! She is a GB Savers reader, so tell her Shelly sent you. :)

Uncle Buck's Dollar Store 1390 Bellevue St # 100 in Green Bay.
