Today I was out shopping and bought a 12 lb re-sealable bag of Arm & Hammer baking soda at Sam's Club. It cost $4.77. That's .40 a lb. Also Dollar Tree had the 16 oz size baking soda 2/$1.

Baking soda really is a cheap alternative to use in place of more expensive cleaners. All you'd have to do is do a search online to find out its many uses or look here at Thriftyfun since I'm sure there have been posts about baking soda before.

Baking soda really is good for more than baking! I like to use in the laundry, as a detergent booster especially with whites. I've been using it more since I've been adding it to the laundry so am glad to have found a big supply. Even though the bag reseals, I'm planning to put in a smaller more manageable container that I can keep in the cabinet above my washer.

I use it on scrubbing my stove top a little sprinkle on my sponge and the burnt on food is gone. I also use it to clean my coffe pots hot water and a few sprinkle and let it sit and the stain just come off. I also sprinkle it smelly shoes. Let it sit over night and I just use my vacuum to remove the baking soda along with the smell.

You're right! Baking soda works beautifully. Whoever posted the tip on cleaning your tub with it really made my day.

My daughter has allergies and I use baking soda for all my cleaning jobs. I love the stuff and it has saved me $$$ on comercial cleaners. I also use it in the laundry, and i have sprinkled some in her closet where we had a problem with mice coming in, and have not seen a sign of a mouse in over a year. It is the most economical, useful product on the market.

My daughter and I ran into a sale on the 12lb bags of Baking Soda at Walmart...they had them on sale 2 for $2. I bought two bags, now I wish I had bought more. When I seen them at Walmart the last shopping trip they were ONE BAG for $6.xx!!!!! NOW I REALLY wish I had bought more!

I use it to wash my husbands work clothes in as well as many cleaning jobs around the house.
