Money Saving Tip #183: Homemade Drain Cleaner

The next time your sink drain gets clogged, dry this homemade recipe first.  Drain-O or those other products designed to unclog your sink are super expensive.  They can cost just below $10 for a bottle.  This recipe includes ingredients that can already be found in your home.  If it doesn't work, then you can rush out and spend the money on the industrial products, but this one is worth a try!

Ingredients:
8 cups of boiling water
1 cup of white vinegar
1 cup of baking soda

Directions:
Pour the baking soda down the drain first.  Then pour the vinegar down the drain.  Wait 5 minutes.  Then, pour the boiling water down the drain.
