Saving Green

I’m talking about money, people. Saving money. That’s the green momma likes! You would be surprised in how similar store brands when compared to “the real thing.” My bathroom downstairs is decorated in full purple, and rightfully so, it is my favorite color! My wonderful husband allowed me to :) Anyhow, I usually fill the soap dispenser with single bottles of liquid hand soap. Sometimes, though, I am too lazy to stand there and pour it all in. What I have done a few times now is purchase the Walgreen brand of soap, sitting right next to the name brand, but at a cheaper price. It does the same thing! I always get the purple colored one, which is usually a lavender/chamomile and vanilla type. Well, the purple of the soap matches beautifully with the towel, rug, garbage can, shelves and decor, so I no longer have to pour it all in, unless of course one day they do not have that soap. Then I can continue using the matching dispenser that I bought with the other items. I have never had a problem with anything store brand from Walgreens, I even have their purple hand sanitizer in the same bathroom! Works great, I have no complaints, and it saves me some money in the long run. I LOVE that!
