KITCHEN staples have very few choices, but one "earth lover" found a way to go paper towel-free that has saved her hundreds of dollars.
A TikTok user shared her favorite money- saving and sustainable hack: reusable paper towels.
Mikaela manages the @SimpleBareNecessities TikTok account. He showed viewers how he saved almost $1,000 by switching to paperless cloth napkins.
She says they are very similar to paper towels and have even more uses .
Mikaela uses the clothes on her Swiffer to clean the floors in her house. They can be soaked in floor cleaner or you can spray the cleaner on when you go.
He puts them in a paper towel holder and takes them out when he needs them.
They can be tossed with every load of laundry when it comes time to clean them.
Incredibly, he hasn't bought paper towels for the past five years.
This is a great example of one of the ways to save money on cleaning products.
Heather Rhodes shared her cleaning trick after realizing she couldn't unscrew the cartridge to refill her Swiffer Wet Jet .

To uncap the Swiffer cartridge, Heather says, you have to microwave a cup of water for two minutes.
Then soak the cork in the cup of hot water for one minute.
After that, the cap should unscrew easily. Now you can refill your Swiffer cartridge with your favorite cleaning product.
Not only can you buy inexpensive alternative cleaners for your Swiffer Wet Jet, you can also make your own at home.
If you want to try making your own cleaner for your Swiffer, toss some orange, lemon, or lime zest in a bowl of distilled white vinegar.
Make sure the container or jar is dated and leave in a cool, dark place for at least a week.
