Yes I use hankies and cloth napkins. I also have what I call personal pads. I just took old kitchen towels and cut them into rectagles. Fold in half and sew up the 3 open sides. Now I have toilet cloths for every time I pee. I do still use paper for the other "stuff". I googled homemade pads and found an abundance of patterns. I used cloth diapers that I got from freecycle. If any women has ever cloth diapered their babies then you can use cloth pads. Its the same clean up only once a month instead of several times a day. In 1 year I have several hundreds of dollars, not to mention the healthy impact this has in the enviroment. I also cook from scratch and make all of my cleaners. Does anyone eles have any frugal ideas to share? I have pretty much stopped using all paper products. Yes I use hankies and cloth napkins. I also have what I call personal pads.
