My problem is with reusables. I am addicted to the Swiffer although I know it’s much less to use a mop and broom that doesn’t require fancy wipes :)

I have recently discovered the Wal-Mart is not the least expensive when it comes to food and household items. Habits die hard and I know that I can save more if I spend more time finding deals and using coupons so that I spend less on household products.

For the Swiffer sweeper, I found a package of dish cloths in a $ store which fit perfectly in the Swiffer. They work great and I just shake them out and wash to reuse.

Ditto everything Steph said (above). I’m the same way with Swiffer. I love it and can’t seem to divorce myself from it. I wonder if there is a way to make cloth attachments that work as well that can be thrown into the washer? Hm…I will have to think upon this.

I’m finding all sorts of things that I can make myself (like detergent) that has helped. Coupon shopping of course, too.
