There are few things I look forward to less than doing my big clean every Sunday.

It takes so much time, even with all that spot cleaning and vacuuming I do during the week, and I find myself replenishing cleaning supplies at Target way more often than I’d like. And with numerous cleaning products on the market, each geared toward a specific area of your house, it doesn’t take long before you’ve spent a large chunk of your weekly paycheck in the cleaning aisle. But what if I told you that the key to cleaning your house may already be in your pantry or under the bathroom sink?

Here are eight epic cleaning tricks that use items you probably have lying around your house.

1. Clean windows with club soda.
