I’ve two bathrooms so I keep a bathroom spray in each one along with toilet cleaner and varies on what’s on offer but I like Tesco own about 90p! I use a furniture polish, I have the W5 one from Aldi or lidl! I also have a brush, mop and hoover! That’s it!! Oh and I recently bought the astonish oven cleaner but I’ve not even attempted that job yet! I do like a wax melt though Don’t hate me!!

I bulk buy white vinegar and bicarb and use those for alot. Make my own cleaning spray up with vinegar and boiled water. Did use citric acid for the loo, but it wasn't cost effective so went back to harpic.
Make my own room and linen sprays, currently I use lavender and chamomile for the beds, and lemongrass and eucalyptus for elsewhere in the house.
Outside of that I use fairy liquid and dishwasher tablets. Oh and I clean with e cloths, that are designed to be used without chemicals anyway

I use whatever cleaning spray is down to a pound in my cheap shop of choice when I go to the supermarket, I use the same one in the bath as I use to do the sink and the loo!!! same with polish it’s normally an own brand.

Anyone else excited to see Sophs weekly meals cooked with this varied selection? My shopping list would fill a whole page of this colouring book

If the wipes are put into your normal landfill bin the wipes won’t breakdown. Companies market them as biodegradable because in very specific conditions they will break down, however they won’t meet these conditions in landfill.i think it’s appalling that companies are allowed to market their products this way, misleading people into thinking they are doing something good for the environment.

How does she have enough time to even colour in a shopping list?! Does she write the list in this book, then again on a piece of paper?? Imagine carrying a colouring book around tescos with your shopping list on!

This with bells on! Far too many people are so determined to have reasons to hate the Hunch they'll believe anything.

Lemongrass and eucalyptus sounds amazing talk to me about what you do!
I currently have a scentsy lemon verbena kitchen spray that someone gave to me for my birthday it’s lovely. However £12 for a kitchen spray I won’t be buying it again!

Someone needs to do a recap, I can't read through 20 pages I have to get ready for work but I don't wanna miss out

P.s. of course henry ate that biscuit last night & did anyone see how angry he looked when she was "telling him off" in that stupid voice?!

Who thinks it will be another ‘quiet’ day over at Hinch Towers? She’s usually has a story at this point about what Ronnie Ate for breakfast. Or banging on about how everyone is still sleeping and she’s awake. I don’t know if what was said yesterday was true but it’s definitely seems like it’s affected her. I guess only time will tell.

What?! I'm horrified. I've just bought some biodegradable household wipes and face wipes, I thought they would break down at landfill, that's really annoyed me as I would not have bought them, thanks, I'll put more research into that!

This is like the things marketed as 'compostable'. Often they won't actually break down in home compost, but will in an industrial composter. Which noone has access to . It is just greenwashing, companies trying to jump on the eco bandwagon and flog their products under the eco friendly banner. Very misleading.

Yeah bugger all breaks down at landfill. It's not the right conditions

I've stopped using wipes and only use microfiber cloths and spray from wilkos (the eco range). However I don't have kids or indoor pets so I know I'm lucky to be able to do this. One thing I will say is the eco toilet cleaner from that range isn't great so I've had to use bleach again. Small changes though

Regards to cleaning, I use
*KOH - this is great for lots of things, the only thing is it doesn't have a scent.
*ill use whatever spray is on offer for my kitchen sides, currently flash. Depends which shop I'm in.
*Bicarb and vinegar
*Smol dishwasher tabs
*bleach for the loos
*koh for the floor too, I have pets so I feel comfortable with using it.
* dettol disinfectant anti bac spray for a quick spray over door handles, switches etc, especially when the kids have been ill.

I don't use them all day in day out though, mostly just the koh.
