Tips:
I use an empty kleenex box to hold my plastic bags.
After using the lemon in my tea, before pitching it- I use it to wipe down a sink. Smells good...
Save empty nut cans, Pringle cans, etc, to put food scraps in.
I like the all-in-one laundry detergent tabs. I've use Tide & Purex (cheapest) so far. No bottles to deal with. A little bit more expensive, tho.
In a full container of baby wipes, add 1/2c of rubbing alcohol. You will dry quicker & really smells fresh. But I do not use it on my face.
I use wintergreen rubbing alcohol, in a spray bottle, to clean counters, table, a spot on the floor, etc. Disenfectent & smells good.

This is not a forum to chit-chat about items. That's for the regular forum..
REMINDER--This is for new idea's and suggestions and tricks , etc,etc for all our camping friends. And your idea's are welcome.
If ya want to carry a conversation or chit-chat, go to the other forum---PLEASE!
Whew!--I think I said what many other readers wanted to say long ago...
BUMP!
FYI, I think those readers who wanted to say what you just did are a minor few.

Nice tips! I love to hear tips on how people use unconventional products to do a job. I am always trying to do that myself as well.

By "1/2c" do you mean 1/2 cup? and do you use 70%, 95% or some other concentration?

Here's one I didn't see. The glass globe on the light over our dining table broke before we bought our FW, and it was just bare 12v light bulbs. I went to Menards, and picked out a 110v light fixture that would cover the area of the old light fixture. Then I went to the light bulb section, and they had 12 volt fluorescent bulbs with the standard Edison base. Removed the old fixture, installed the new one, connected the wires, and screwed in the bulb. A quick and very easy fix.

How do I say this? Lets just say that you don't want to use these "down south" either. I speak from experience!

Sure you don't want to tell us the "rest of the story"????????????????? ROL!
I got some really strong small "rare earth" magnets from Harbor Freight and glued them onto the side of the cabinet near our keyhooks, just inside the front door of the trailer. (I used a dab of Gorilla Glue -- that stuff is a little messy but it works very well.) The magnets hold the keys in place -- they don't fall off the hooks, even when we leave the keys in place while towing.

I took a one-foot long piece oak about 1.5" X 3/8" and attached five small cup hooks. I installed it on the inside of one of the closed cabinets near the entrance. We keep all of our keys here, out of site, but handy. I'll post a photo if you are interested. Just send me a personal message.
Works great...

I also use empty kleenex boxes for storing plastic bags. I keep one just for doggie doo bags next to the door of the FW. Easy to grab a couple when leaving for a walk. Convenient and tidy.
I also use the Purex sheets for the trailer. So easy to to take one sheet with the laundry to the washers.
We keep two dry-erase boards in the trailer. One is for my DH to use on our camp outs. He illustrates our "theme" for that outing and we display it outside. It is a nice conversation starter. The second one is used mostly when we are with our camping group. We set it out so people can leave notes for each other or to list when activities are scheduled. It doubles as the drawing board when we play group Pictionary. They cost us about $5 each at WalMart.
