Get Rid of Student Loan Debt

How do you know you’re a successful college graduate these days? About ten percent of your paycheck goes toward student loan payments every month, and will continue to do so until, oh, the day you retire. Student loan debt has become a fact of life for most students, and we can probably debate whether this [...]

How to Clean Silver

It’s that time of year again. Time to pull the good silver out of the box to set your holiday table, only to discover that your once-sparkling forks are black with tarnish. Since tarnished silver doesn’t impress your guests—it’s ugly and tastes funny—and it’s a waste of good silverware to hide it back in the box and use the stainless steel everyday stuff, you’re probably going to want to clean your silver. Except that you don’t really want to, because cleaning silver is difficult and time-consuming, right? Actually, it doesn’t have to be. I can show you how to clean silver in ways that are quick and painless. Also, as always, the methods you’ll see here are easy on the environment.

How to Clean Dog Urine

I live in an apartment. A very small apartment. Which translates to: “I, at this moment, am not the proud owner of my very own pooch.” I haven’t had a dog since I left my parent’s home. And you know what? I miss it terribly. I love dogs. I have two cats, and they’re great. But. It’s just not the same. As soon as I’m able, I have every intention of getting myself an English bulldog and a German Shorthair. It’ll take some getting used to again, having dogs around. But I’m prepared for the mess. I cleaned up after my parents dogs for years and got pretty dang good at. I have even developed a modified recipe and technique for cleaning dog urine naturally from things you’ve probably got in your house already. So if you’re lucky enough to have dogs already, and are unlucky enough to have clean up after them, then check out this article and happy cleaning!

Get Rid of Snoring

How to Get Rid of Snoring is a weird title, because you’re not actually getting rid of snoring like you’d be getting rid of a blister, you know? The list of things that cause snoring is pretty extensive, and sometimes people snore for no good reason at all–it just happens. For instance, getting rid of [...]

How to Clean Cat Urine

Raise your hand if you don’t love to clean cat urine…….yup…….that’s what I thought… no one. Ok, maybe my counting skills aren’t quite what they used to be. My cat urine cleaning skills, on the other hand, are about as good as my nunchucking skills, which is to say, pretty darn good. Cleaning cat urine just doesn’t have to be a big daunting ordeal. It’s just not that bad. It’s certainly nothing to click your heels over, but still, not bad. It also happens to be quite easy to clean cat urine naturally using supplies you’ve probably got sitting around your house already (e.g. vinegar, peroxide, baking soda, dish soap). With a simple recipe and some step by step directions, this article will explain how to do just that.

Get Rid of Credit Card Debt

As we head into the holiday season the first thing on many people’s minds is goodwill and charity shopping, shopping, and then some more shopping. And what comes with shopping in America? Credit cards, credit cards, and oh what’s that, more credit cards. Credit cards seems like just another part of financial life now, but [...]

How to Get Rid of Things: Forums

Guess what? We finally put the forums up. If you’re looking for advice or have some advice to offer and this stupid blog and it’s stupid comments weren’t helping you, then I would say go to the get rid of things forums and post your question/suggestion. The first person to post a topic gets a [...]

Get Rid of a Car

I probably should have done an article about how to get rid of a car before we sold Natasha’s car, because we took quite a beating on the price we eventually settled on. Poor Natasha out there in the cold, being haggled down by a very large man. I would have gone to help, but [...]
