Many households spend money on items they don't need or use efficiently.
Here are six household staples that are often considered a waste of money.
1. Paper towels: Reusable cloths or microfiber towels are more cost-effective and eco-friendly alternatives to disposable paper towels.
2. Single-use cleaning products: Instead of buying individual cleaning products for each task.
3. Bottled water: Investing in a water filter or using a reusable water bottle can save money.
4. Dryer sheets: Dryer balls or simply air-drying clothes can replace single-use dryer sheets, reducing unnecessary expenses.
5. Brand-name cleaning supplies: Generic or store-brand cleaning products often contain similar ingredients to their more expensive counterparts
6. Pre-packaged single-serving foods: Buying in bulk and portioning items yourself can save money
