47 0|0|Carpets are shampooed.....oh my, they look gooood! :D I use a homemade shampoo in my Bissell, works terrific! Mix 1 cup vinegar, 1 scoop oxyclean, 2 tbs of fabric softener liquid, and 2 qts of HOT water. I use this in the solution reservoir of the machine. Takes out everything, makes the carpets fresh smelling and fluffy!|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|12:46:42|06/02/2011|

we have a carpet cleaner too, it belonged to my mother in law but she gets a new one every year; so gave us her "old" one. The cleaning solution is usually expensive, so I will DEFINITELY try your mixture soon!
Thanks :)

PS, did I see on here somewhere that the boys are graduating? Wow!!! Congrats! 4|4|I've been using that recipe (found it online) for about 2 yrs....my carpets are about 7 yrs old, but look like almost new :) The boys will be seniors this coming school year, so only one more year til they graduate :O Funny to think they were in kindergarten when I joined RS!|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|13:12:47|06/02/2011|

Joy this is fantastic! I wanna make the solution today and clean mine this weekend.. I bought a bottle of Bissell and will take it back..This stuff has gone up drastically in price and used to use a walmarts brand but they too have gone up 7.00..Ridiculous..check your email..have a question!

10|5|Emailed you back....and for others interested, I dont use the Oxyclean brand powder, I use Sun brand at Dollar General, but it is the same as Oxyclean...way cheaper! A good size bucket is $5, and I use it in the laundry too. :)|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|08:49:46|06/03/2011|

I use it sometimes in the winter to rinse my hair with as it not only softens my hair but gets rid of the "winter flakes". It can also be used in the bath water to soften dry or sunburned skin. I use 1 cup of it in my dog's bath rinse water as it softens her skin & hair as well but helps repel mosquitoes & gnats when she's outside.
My ENT uses it to soften earwax before removing as vinegar has anti-bacterial properties, & mixed w/a little bit of Isopropyl alcohol & putting a couple drops in the ear, it's an excellent mix to use after swimming or showering to prevent painful swimmer's ear. :)

I bought 2. LOL I did ask the clerk tho about the pails & she said they used to carry them but not anymore. Guess they realized they could make more $$$ off the $2 containers than the pails for $5. :-p
Going to eventually check Walmart &/or Walgreens & a couple other places for the pails.....
