Here is yet another use for this fabu- lous stuff in the first great reader tip. BIKE BLUES. I got grease all over my clothing by putting my bike into my car. I called a bike repair shop and asked what would take the grease out of my clothes. The answer was good old original blue Dawn added to the washer. Worked great. -- Elaine, Pennsylva- nia SOAP SAVER. My best friend showed me a neat trick when doing laundry. Toss the cap that you use to measure liquid laundry soap into the washer, after you dispense the liquid. Pull the cap out when you switch the load to the dryer. You never will waste a drop of soap again. -- Francesca C., Illinois MARKER MAGIC. When my daughter's favorite ivory formal dress got red permanent marker on it, we both almost cried. I went online and was willing to try any- thing to get the stain out. Rubbing alcohol did the trick. The stain liter- ally disappeared the second I poured the alcohol on it. -- Andrea, Arizona TOWEL TERRITORY. I don't like having stacks of face towels in my linen closet. Instead, I combine the face towel with its matching bath towel. I fold them together and stack the towels in the linen closet to save space. It is also a way to keep inventory of my linens. -- Andrea C., Cal- ifornia STEAMED HEAT. I steam out wrinkles in all of my delicates by putting them on plastic hangers and hanging them on the towel rack at the back of my bathtub. When I take a shower, I steam the clothes. Then I let them air-dry. This is especially helpful to do on trips when suitcases and garment bags leave nice clothes a mess! -- Linda P., Louisiana VINEGAR VALUE. To save on fabric softener, I use white vinegar in my fabric softener dispenser in the washing machine. My clothes come out smelling clean and are as Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate soft as they were when I used fabric softener. A gallon of white vinegar is less than $2, so it lasts a long time. -- Deb, e-mail COLOR SAVER. My kids and I both have made the famous "red sock in the white load" mistake. I've had good luck using Rit color remover. It says you can use it in the washer or on the stovetop, but I've had the most luck with the stovetop. When an article of clothing falls victim, it can be saved if it is something you can put in very hot water. Be careful that you don't leave it in too long and remove the original color. -- Susan B., e-mail Would you like to send a tip to Mary?
