Tips4

Welcome to the fourth week of our segment:

Tuesday's Threefold Tips, aka The Trip T's

Instead of the ole fashiony way of telling someone once a tip moment presents itself, let us prepare in advance and make some new, and hopefully useful, brain wrinkles.

The Trip T's for this week are:

via What to Expect

Is one of the most annoying parts of doing laundry for you to sort the socks?  Try leaving safety pins near your hamper.  Once you take off your dirty socks pin them together to go through the washer and dryer.  Get the rubber coated safety pins because metal ones will rust.  (Thanks Jennifer and Dear Heloise for this tip!) 

$7.04 from Amazon

Speaking of socks...  if you have a baby or toddler always make sure to put their socks, or tiny wash clothes, through the washing machine in a mesh bag.  We have had 2 washer repairs totaling $460 from socks getting sucked up in the whatchumacallit.  The repair guy said it's always baby socks or sassy thin lady underwears so if you fancy the dental floss sized underoo's (good for your partner), get a mesh bag too.  We use our mesh bag religiously now...for socks.

 Concerned with all the pesticides, dirt and wax on fruit's skin?  Vinegar to the rescue again!  Clean your sink really well, fill it half way with warm water, add a cup of vinegar, drop in your fruit and let soak for ten minutes, and then rinse fruit off.  Way less expensive than fruit cleaners that are sold now.  (Thanks for the tip Janie and MommyMishaps.com)



Now is the perfect opportunity to share that time/money/earth saving tip your mama, bestie, boss told you that you have wanted to shout to the world.

Why do this?  Because sharing is caring! 

Please send your tips via email findmyfelicity@gmail.com, DM on Twitter (@findmyfelicity), or message on Facebook.  Please add in the message how you would like your web cred (name, website, handle, picture, whateves).
