Don't spend your hard earned on buying different cleaning products, no, just buy the one.
Example:
Instead of throwing your cash at soap, shower gel, washing up liquid, washing powder/liquid for laundry, just buy one bottle of medicated handwash. This will do exactly the same job as all those others put together.
The huge advantage is that you've only spent for one item to do many different cleaning tasks. By following this advice you've saved yourself, well...................... an enormous wad.

I've worked it all out. I've done the maths (aagghh - I hate it when Americans say math) and you could find yourself saving enough money to go on the holiday of your dreams.

I have to be very careful when my keeper is cleaning me that I don't drink the shampoo.
