$6 for the clove, $7 for the rosemary and $10 for the t-tree which is tons
less than they have them for at sunflower.  The clove and lavender are $11
at Sunflower Market and the t-tree is $15 and this is for the small bottle.
The big bottle was $24 on sale, but I didn't have that much on me..

How much did you end up paying for the oils?

Thanks,

Erin

Hello, gab and I went to our GNC today and you all were right, the essential
oils are priced reasonably.  I bought t-tree oil, clove oil and rosemary
oil.  They were out of lemon and peppermint.  So do you suppose that all
purpose cleaner would work with rosemary instead of peppermint.  If not,
then I know I can add lavender to it.

Hi.

You can make an allperpis cleaner that works well though not for glass. 
Fill a spray bottle with half water and half vinnager, then add three drops
of T-tree oil, two drops peppermint oil, and three drops clove oil and
shake.  This can be used on floors, counter tops, stone, finnished wood, and
works grate in showers.  I don't recomend it for windows because it can be
streaky.  Fore windows you can use half water and vinnager out of a spray
bottle.  This cleaner is anty bacteral and I use it all the time.  I make
this once a month and only have to buy new oil every four mounths.

Hope this helps.
Kate
