Here's my 14 things!

  1. Laundry Soap-I make my own using Zote soap, Borax and Washing soda
  2. Fabric Softener-a small ball of crumpled foil cuts static cling, and some essential oil on a washcloth adds a bit of fragrance to the dryer...but I want to put up a line to dry
  3. Toilet bowl cleaner-as FlyLady says, soap is soap!  http://www.flylady.net/d/br/2012/05/15/what-is-swish-and-swipe/
  4. Paper towels-I use microfiber cloths for most cleaning jobs
  5. Deodorant-http://www.crunchybetty.com/not-a-secret-homemade-deodorant
  6. Toothpaste-I use a Rotadent, which does not require toothpaste, but I do use baking soda once in a while and rinse with peroxide.
  7. Haircuts-hubby cuts his own (shaves it with clippers, no guard), I cut our son's and my own (with guards). I don't use hair dye anymore, either.
  8. Broccoli-I planted some last fall and we won't eat store bought anymore!
  9. Strawberry Jam-again, I made some and we won't go back!
  10. Peanut butter-see #9
  11. Hot Cocoa Mix &  Marshmallows-see #9
  12. Chocolate Syrup-see #9
  13. Pancake & Waffle Mix-see # 9 
  14. Yellow Rice -see #9

Apparently there are a lot of frugal bloggers blogging about things that they no longer buy. http://christine-mary.blogspot.com/2012/05/10-things-we-dont-spend-money-on.html
I figured I'd add mine to the mix!
