Money Saver! Windex


From FakeItFrugal.blogspot.com: Make your own Windex for 27 cents per bottle!

http://fakeitfrugal.blogspot.com/2011/08/fake-windex.html


Here's what you need:
1 Empty Windex Spray Bottle
1/8 Cup (1oz) White Ammonia
1/4 Cup (4oz) Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol
1 Drop Laundry Detergent
Water - To Fill The Bottle 

Isn't it nuts how most of what we're paying for is WATER?  Anyway, I tried this "refill" of my Windex and it's awesome!  No streaks & it even smells like the real thing!  

I used a 64 oz bottle of Ammonia and a 16 oz bottle of Rubbing Alcohol that I picked up for $1.00 each at the Dollar Tree.  Wait till you see how cheap it is to "fake" your own Windex:

Fake-It Yourself Breakdown:
Fake Windex (Ammonia $0.02, Alcohol $0.25)
Total Fake-It Cost:  $0.27
Compare to Real Windex:  $3.69
Total Fake-It Savings:  $3.42*
