When Substitutions make Cents!

We have to observe the link between time, money and our reserves (resources).

The underlying advantage to using substitutions is to utilize your resources instead of spending time and money shopping for something you still basically have.

How many times do you go to the store just for bread, or milk, or eggs, cheese, or flour, or sugar? The usual suspects bring home with them other unnecessary purchased items.

A suitable occasion to use a substitution would be if you ran out of milk and you have dry milk in reserves. Go mix that milk until you have a good number of stuff on your "list" to make a sensible trip to the store.

Also, let's say that you are out of laundry detergent, but have a lot of bars of soap (hotel size or ones you ended up hating) lying around. If this is the case and you're going on a "sensible" trip to the store, instead of buying "laundry soap", buy borax and washing soda to use with the barsoap and make your own. It will be cheaper, last longer and use up some of your reserves that have been lying around as clutter.

In the back of your mind, always have your goals in focus. It makes it easier to make the better choices.

Power to substitutions! =p

    I have never found washing soda in any store around here. I've tried to find it to buy online but never have.
