Each week we are going to try and give you all some really useful tips to use
in your everyday life which will hopefully offer you the chance to save a bit of time, effort and money.
Our first really useful tip is for baby wipes :
Baby wipes can be used for far more than just cleaning babies bottoms, they’re great for cleaning your hands after filling the car with petrol and cooling down after exercise. In fact they are great travel companions - if you don’t want to carry a container, pack a few wipes in a self sealing sandwich bag and keep in your glove compartment or handbag.
The empty containers can be used in many useful ways including :
Storing plastic bags for reuse when shopping each container can hold up to 30 - 40 bags - once you’ve squeezed the air out of them .
Hold towels or rags for use when cleaning the car or in the garage for wiping up spills.
Fact of the Week
DID YOU KNOW - cold cream is cold because it is made with a lot of water that evaporates and cools your warm face. Cold cream is one of the oldest facial ointments and was invented around about AD157.
Cold cream is brilliant for removing temporary tattoos. Rub cold cream into the tattoo to loosen and gently rub off using a facecloth. Brilliant!


My mum used a type of cold cream to take make-up off my face when I’d been playing at dressing up. It always seemed to do the trick and was very gentle, so could probably be a good stand-by make-up remover.
