20+ Amazing Dollar Store Cleaning Tips! _You NEED to Know These

**My Favorite Cleaning Products: A Budget-Friendly Guide**

As someone who values frugality and efficiency, I've spent years searching for the best cleaning products that won't break the bank. From my favorite Magic Eraser sponges to a simple DIY all-purpose cleaner, I'm excited to share my top picks with you.

**Magic Eraser Sponges: The Ultimate Multi-Purpose Cleaning Tool**

My go-to cleaning product of all time is the Magic Eraser sponge. These incredible little tools can be found at most dollar stores, including the Dollar Tree, or on Amazon for a slightly lower price. I've lost count of how many times I've used them to clean walls and doors in my home, especially with a toddler who loves to get creative (and messy) on various surfaces. The Magic Eraser sponge is gentle enough not to damage most surfaces, yet tough enough to remove stubborn stains and grime. With over 30 ways to use Magic Eraser sponges in your home, I've dedicated an entire video to showcasing their versatility.

**Squeegee: A Game-Changer for Shower Cleanliness**

I recently discovered the joys of using a squeegee in my shower, and I'm hooked! This simple tool is a must-have for anyone who wants to save time and effort when cleaning up after a shower. I keep one in my shower at all times, just taking a minute to squeeze it down the glass and watch the water spot disappear. It's amazing how much of a difference this tiny tool can make in the long run.

**Toothbrushes: Multitasking at its Finest**

I recently picked up a 2-pack of toothbrushes for just $1, which is an absolute steal considering their versatility. I use one to clean my diamond ring with Dawn dish soap and warm water – it's amazing how well the gentle bristles get into all the tiny crevices. Another great use is cleaning small cracks and crevices in my car, while a third toothbrush comes in handy for buffing out stains on my stainless steel appliances using olive oil.

**Baking Soda: Nature's Natural Odor Absorber**

When it comes to absorbing odors naturally, baking soda is the way to go. I keep one of these miracle workers in the fridge to quickly neutralize any lingering smells. Simply pop open the container and let its magic work its way into your kitchen.

**Olive Oil: The Secret to Polishing Stainless Steel Appliances**

For a shiny, polished finish on my stainless steel appliances, olive oil is the answer. I use microfiber cloths dipped in a mixture of equal parts olive oil and water to buff out any dull spots or fingerprints. It's a simple yet effective trick that leaves my kitchen looking like new.

**Vinegar: The World's Easiest DIY All-Purpose Cleaner**

When it comes to creating an all-purpose cleaner, vinegar is the ultimate MVP. I make my own solution by mixing equal parts water and white vinegar in a spray bottle, adding 20 drops of lemon lavender essential oil for a pleasant scent (optional). This simple DIY cleaner works wonders on most surfaces except for stone – but that's not even close to being a problem!

**Drain Cleaner: The Long-Spiked Snake That Saves the Day**

For those pesky clogs and blockages in your drain, I swear by this trusty long-spiked snake. Simply insert it into the drain, spin it around, and pull it out – voilà! Hair and debris disappear, and your pipes are once again flowing freely.

**Cleaning Caddies: Organizing Your Cleaning Supplies for Easy Access**

Finally, I've found a creative solution to keeping my cleaning supplies organized and within reach. Using bins as cleaning caddies has made my life so much easier, as I can quickly grab what I need from each room without having to search high and low.
