I keep a bottle of hydrogen peroxide in my laundry room. It works well for non-greasy stains. Dish soap or mechanic's hand cleaner (such as ' Go Joe' ) is good for greasy stains. I also keep a bottle of cheap bio-friendly carpet stain remover for stubborn stains.

You might be surprised what baking soda will clean. I use it on laundry and cleaning my sink and my cookware. It will also cut soap residue on the shower door.

I keep a simple bottle of dish liquid such as dawn or palmolive etc. and squirt the stains before I put them in the laundry hamper if possible. If not I use it before they are washed. This has worked wonders for me and you can buy it at dollar stores. A bottle will last a year or better depending on how messy things are at your home. I have also taken an empty dish liquid detergent bottle and filled it with inexpensive laundry soap and soaked with that.
