Did you know that you can use toothpaste to clean your car headlights? If they’re really cloudy, simply scrub headlight with a rag and some toothpaste. Be sure to use the paste kind, not the gel kind. You can probably just use a bit of toothpaste from a tube you already have on hand. Photo Source: scaveber4.blogspot.com

The gel cost less than $5, and in a year, I’ve only used 1/3 of the bottle. Rather than putting in new cabinetry, which would be expensive and decidedly not eco-friendly, we’re instead going to invest some elbow grease into working with what we have and simply stripping the cabinets and then repainting them white.

Many home electronics still consume energy even if they are not in use, so you might consider unplugging your TV, computer, microwave, and/or other electronics that don’t need electricity while you’re gone.
