I’d be embarrassed to watch this video with anyone but myself. It’s about how much I heart vinegar!

I’m a vinegar freak. I eat it and clean with it. Great video Julia. Especially love you in the shower fully clothed

Awesome video! I heart vinegar too!

I’m sold! except wearing my clothes in the shower! Any tips on making everything not smell like vinegar when we’re done vinegarizing everything? thank you for the informational, educational, inspirational, entertaining video

@Kelly Lester The shower scene was awkward! We didn’t know how to make it look like I was unclothed – and I certainly wasn’t about to get naked! Tighter shot nexttime?!

@Crystal Mullins Thanks!!!!

@janiece That’s a great question. I got a few strong doses of vinegar up my nose while filming and it is NOT my favorite scent. The vinegar in my hair smell went away as it dried. Most of the times you’re using a vinegar solution (diluted with water) so the smell is manageable.

I too clean everything with Vinegar, you forgot to mention wood floors. mirrors and glass. Vinegar also kills mold and I also use it to clean my fruit before I eat eat, like apples and grapes.

The smell goes away, once dry. And even theough the smell is strong, it’s not toxic like other cleaning agents. It’s a great cleaning agent if you are Asthmatic.

Cute video! Julia, you weren’t removing your “I Brake for Bargains” bumper sticker, were you?!!

I’ve been looking for a non-toxic way to kill the weeds that are growing from the cracks in my sidewalk. I’m going out there right now to pour on the vinegar! Thanks! Great tip.

@Denise I agree, there are so many more uses for vinegar than the 10 I shared in this video. I originally sent in 21 tips, but my editor cut it down for time. Yazmin’s post “31 secret uses for vinegar” was the inspiration for this video: http://bargainbabe.com/2011/03/09/31secret-uses-for-vinegar/

Julia, you are the cutest! Next time for the “hair scene”, maybe lean over the sink and “wash” your hair! Or wear your wetsuit!!!

Glad I read this. Never knew it worked with weeds. I use it more for getting other people’s perfume off of my clothing when I get hugs from friends and family I haven’t seen in a while.LOL

I just used Apple Cider Vinegar to get over a cold and it worked beautifully. I feel much better.

I always use it for cleaning my drains just put the baking soda in first and rinse it with vinegar.
Vinegar is one of the most amazing products ever!
March 25th, 2011 at 7:13 am
LOL next time just wear a raincoat in the shower!

The Best Spray Cleaner Ever!
This recipe was published years ago in Natural Health magazine and I’ve never seen it again. It works just as well as the commercial stuff, and much less toxic and smelly.
1 teaspoon 20 Mule Team Borax
2 Tablespoons distilled white vinegar
2 Tablespoons Murphy Oil liquid soap [OR 1/4 cup Dr. Bronner's liquid soap (Murphy is thicker, so you need less)]
10 – 15 drops essential oil in your preferred fragrance
2 cups very hot distilled water
(1 teaspoon washing soda or water softener if using tap water instead of distilled water)
Dissolve all the ingredients in the hot water, mixing very well. Using a funnel, pour mixture into a spray bottle. Use like any multipurpose spray cleaner.

Don’t forget vinegar in a bowl to take away cooking odors

Awesome video! I also buy it by the gallon and use it in the laundry, cleaning and to rinse my hair (I “shampoo” with baking soda). It’s funny but I always feel a little awkward when I buy a gallon. But what the heck! Vive le -green- Revolucion!

@Valerie I was taking a corner of my “I BRAKE FOR BARGAINS” bumper sticker off in the video – but only because it is the only sticker I have. I re-stuck it promptly after the shot.

I have been using baking soda and vinegar to wash my hair for about 6 months. Your hair won’t smell like vinegar at all when you get out of the shower.

What’s your opinion for using vinegar to get rid of ants….it’s spring!
