I’m sure we all have at least one old t-shirt that we no longer use. Instead of throwing it out or giving it away, recycle it!
Cut it up and make rags out of it.
Just cut along the seams going up the sides of the t-shirt, open it up, and cut the shirt into squares of whatever size you need.
You’ll never have to buy rags again!

About Angela
It all began on October 8th, 2008. Cathy and Monica started this coupon blog to help friends and family learn about their new money saving hobby couponing! Since then they have taught thousands of women (and men) 
I also use them to sop up that bacon grease I’m going to throw away. If I put my bacon in the microwave, I use the all-cotton t-shirts instead of papertowels…. Every little bit of savings helps.
You’re exactly right! Every bit helps! Thanks for the idea!
Yes, have been doing this for years, socks too!
That’s funny you say that…I just used an old [but clean] sock the other day to clean something.
Old T-shirts also make EXCELLENT yarn. It is soft and comes in a huge variety of colors for a bright scarf or a rug. Makes your knitting project feel like you bought expense Jersey yarn. Great way to save. Try it!
Awesome Idea! How do you get the “t-shirt yarn” to be long enough? Do you just tie the pieces together?
