💸 Adulting Is Expensive… But These 3 Hacks Save Me So Much
Being an adult means paying for the dumbest things 😩
Here are 3 hacks I swear by to save cash on all the random stuff we have to buy:
🔹 1. DIY Dawn Powerwash Refill
I love Dawn Powerwash — hate paying $4 for a refill.
Here’s how I make mine for just 50¢:
😘4 tbsp Dawn dish soap
😘2 tbsp rubbing alcohol
😘Fill the rest of the Powerwash bottle with water
Boom. Same results, less plastic, way cheaper. 👏
🔹 2. Stock Up on Quick Sale Veggies
Grocery prices are wild right now.
I grab clearance produce (like $4 for all these peppers), chop ‘em, and freeze.
Perfect for soups, stir fries, anything — and no last-minute runs for overpriced frozen bags.
Pro tip: do this now with seasonal produce (corn, berries, apples) before prices jump in winter ❄️
🔹 3. DIY Goo Gone (That Actually Works)
Don’t buy it. Make it:
😍2 tbsp baking soda
😍1 tbsp coconut oil
😍Squeeze of lemon
Mix into a paste. I store mine in a $1 jar.
Use it to remove sticker residue, polish rust spots in your fridge or sink — it’s magic ✨
Honestly, it’s the little things that make a big difference when you're trying to live well and save money.
