I agree, microfiber cloths are a great way to save money and, in my opinion, they work much better than paper towels. I used to buy a double pack of paper towels about once a week – and it’s about $4 – $5 for a 2 pack of the good ones. What a waste! Not to mention, not too great for the environment. Thanks for all of the green and money saving household tips – any little bit of savings can is helpful these days.

Microfiber cloths! How I love them. Get them in gigantic stacks at the vast warehouse club store starting with COS or at your nearest auto supply store.

My house has all hard floors. And a dog that drops fur each time she inhales and then again each time she exhales. Once a day I attach a dry MF cloth to the Swiffer and dustmop the floor with it. Keeps the floors looking pretty clean all week. AND…when I go to vacuum and steam-mop the floors once a week, almost no hair comes up. The vacuum is not clogged with dog hair so I don’t have to run out to the trash and empty it two or three times during the cleaning process, and it seems to take a lot less time to do the weekly serious floor-cleaning.

@ Ross: The things aren’t designed to be used with chemicals. Don’t use them with furniture polish gunk (which you shouldn’t put on your furniture anyway). Get the cloth slightly damp in cool tap water, wring as dry as you can, and then try dusting.

I have used a lot of these ideas except a paper towel replacement. What a great idea. We use cloth napkins right now and a microfiber cloth would be a great compliment. Thanks for the great post.

Okay, I’m buying some of this micro-fiber stuff. My biggest pet peeve in the world for some odd reason is dust on my furniture, and how when I dust with a regular cloth and some Windex or pledge or whatever, it’s almost impossible to actually get the surface completely dust-free because it doesn’t stick to the cloth. Maybe I’m just weird or OCD or something.

I keep one in each vehicle. Whenever I’m stuck waiting somewhere I use it to dust the inside, or clean the windows/mirrors.

We use them in place of paper towels, I keep a container on the kitchen counter full of them – I don’t think we’ve touched paper towels in 3 months or more. We clean counters, spills, etc. with them.

We use them to dust as well – they’re great for cleaning ceiling fans!

When we’re heading out for a day trip, or a trip to the beach, I fill a container with them and add soap and water for handy wipes.

I think I have some trousers and a casual jacket that are microfiber. hey are great because they are washable and resist wrinkles.
