I love tips lists–six tips, eight tips, 10 tips, whatever you’ve got–and I just came across Miss Thrifty’s post Six Thrifty Uses for a Lemon. I won’t copy all of her useful tips here (you should just go to her site and read them there!) but particularly wanted to call out this one, which I absolutely plan to use in my neverending battle with limescale:
3. Do what Frugal Grandma does: squish leftover lemon wedges against the bases of your bathroom taps and remove them after an hour or so. The citric acid dissolves limescale.





This really works. Cleaned my faucets and smells great too!
