[blparent] green and natural products in the home

[Erin Rumer]

Hello list,

 

I am wanting to try and use as many more natural, green, baby and pet safe
products in the home as much as possible and would love to hear from those
of you who do this as well.  What works for you?  There are some things I've
found that I like a lot but it's great to get ideas as folks find things
that work for them.  If I had lots of disposable income I'd just order
through Melaleuca on-line because I've been given their Diamond Bright dish
washer detergent and it's amazing and I've heard nothing but awesome things
about their other products but they cost a lot.  I also am not a fan of
paying a membership just to be able and buy some companies products and be
required to keep purchasing a minimum amount each month in order to get
decent deals on things.  Costco is where I make this exception in paying the
membership because our membership fee is more than paid for by the amount of
things we buy their each year in interest and the gas prices can't be beat
which is worth it on its own.  So, to make a long story even longer I'm
exclusively looking for products that can be purchased commercially in store
only.  If you've found a green cleaning product, deodorant or whatever,
please share.  I've especially tried to find a good deodorant that lasts
that is more natural but this has been a trial because everything wares off
mid-day or sooner.  I really want to try and be as healthy as possible and
keep my family that way too and if I can teach my son to be conscious of
these things and not break the bank, than this will be one of many valuable
lessons learned.

 

Thanks,

 

Erin
