Customer Rating:      Summary: Haley's Hints Help Comment: I grew up when my folks did most of this stuff as everyday practise. I subscribe to a newsletter that has some of these hints. However, this book is still worth money, and more. It's partly about saving money, recycling stuff giving it a second chance before hitting the garbage. Mainly for me, I hate running out to get something when there is something laying around the house that would do just as well. Whatever your angle for following these hints, money, the environment, or just wanting to save a bit of time; this is the book. Besides I like having a book in my hand instead of running to the computer every time something needs doing. Somethings I would never think of looking up. Like we have five cats, one have chewed through several of my headphone wires. The hint is to rub the cord with soap, cats don't like the taste. Now that saved me some money.
Customer Rating:      Summary: AMAZING Comment: I HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO BUYING WHITE VINEGAR, SODA, AND BORAX--- AND I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THE AWAKENING!!! NO MORE HIGH PRICED UNNECESSARY STUFF IN MY CABINETS. THANKS SO MUCH
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great book to go to........... Comment: Haley's hints is a great book to go to for finding how-to information. It has been very helpful when I know there's a better way to clean something when the over-the-counter products are not performing, or when I don't have them on-hand. This book will save you time and money and you'll go to it often.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A real life-saver. Comment: I have used this for years. Now I give it as a bridal shower gift everytime I am invited to one.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Worth the $$ Comment: I've had this book for over 2 years now and have used it intermittently (gardening and storage tips, mainly). Unfortunately, I often forget it's in the house and use expensive, store-bought solutions. Today, however, my bathroom sink was clogged and I have a sick child so didn't want to run to the store for Liquid Plumber (my first instinct). I remembered the book, tried the baking soda/vinegar/boiling water solution and it worked great! So, not only did I save the $5+, I used something much 'greener' than chemicals (one of my new year's resolutions). I'm going to have to look at the contents of the book again and store it in a more handy area so I don't forget about it again!
