I recently found out a couple of alternatives to kitty litter. One is pony pellets, as opposed to paying about $5 for a 5 kilogram bag of cat litter, I can purchase 20 kilograms of pony pellets for less than $10.
Another alternative is chicken starter feed. Again, I can purchase 20 kilograms of this for a little over $10.
Both alternatives are environmentally friendly and pose no hazards to cats or kittens.
Both can be purchased at produce or feed stores.

Using WD40 As A Stainless Steel Appliance Cleaner
I find stainless steel cleaners for kitchen appliances to be ridiculously expensive. As a result I went on a search for a cheaper alternative that works just as well.
I now spray my stainless steel appliances with a light spray of Selleys WD40 and then buff off with a soft cloth. It does a beautiful job for a fraction of the price, and will definitely keep rust and discoloration at bay.

Finding the Cheapest Razors and Shavers
Recently I counted the number of razor handles of differing brands in our bathroom cabinet. There were 7 different ones. I wrote down the brands and types and went to compare the prices on the blades.
I found that the blades were actually more expensive per blade than purchasing a set comprising of a new handle and up to 4 blades.
For example, purchasing the cheapest 4 blades for one of our handles would have cost $13 minimum.
I was able to purchase a set with a handle AND four blades on special at $5.95.
So, when purchasing replacement blades, it's worth checking out the complete sets to see what the price per blade is in comparison.
The only negative in this is now we have EIGHT handles. I now have a special drawer just for all the handles and blades!
