Some great tips from everyday cheap skate . com:

Of all my pet peeves (yes, I do have more than a few), I put laundry stains right up at the top of the list. ThatÂs why I was so interested to read todayÂs first great reader tip. Blueberry stains are one of the most challenging. But who knew they could also be one of the easiest to remove!

BLUEBERRY STAINS. My family eats a lot of blueberries and gets the juice on their clothes. I keep a spray bottle of water and vinegar mixture by my clothes washer and whenever a blueberry stain shows up I spray the mixture on it and the stain turns pink. I throw it in the washer with the other clothes and it comes out perfectly. Kristen, Washington

FREEZING PIZZA. The best way to store leftover pizza is to freeze it. Then when you want a piece, just pop it in the microwave. It is almost as good as the day you bought it and itÂs not dried out. I buy the two-pizza specials on delivery pizza and freeze one. No name, email

PUPPY STAINS. Our college daughter gave us a puppy. Of course, there were accidents on the rug. My daughter told me to blot the spot with a paper towel, sprinkle 1/4-inch baking soda on the spot and let it dry for about 24 hours. Then I just vacuum up the dried baking soda. It works great!

FLUFF AS YOU DRY. When I dry comforters, sheets, blankets or anything that just wads up in the dryer, I also throw in a tennis ball. It separates the sheets, blankets, etc. It only costs a few buck for three cheap balls. The kicker is they last forever, and your linens dry much faster, saving electricity. Patricia M., email

CUP OF ORANGE JUICE. I make orange juice from concentrate, but sometimes I end up throwing half of it away because I donÂt drink it fast enough. While visiting my friend, I noticed she would make a glass of orange or grape juice by scooping out a spoonful of frozen concentrate from the container in the freezer, putting it in a glass the size of the drink that she wanted, adding water and stirring. I thought this was a great technique! Diana M., email

ANTS BE GONE. To get rid of those annoying little kitchen ants, lay out dryer fabric sheets. Put them behind your canisters, appliances and even bathroom sinks. The ants will quickly disappear. Melissa, Tennessee

KEEP THAT NUMBER. I started paying my bills online. When I got the confirmation numbers I was writing them down on scraps of paper near my computer and losing them. So now I always have my checkbook handy, and when I deduct the amount in it, I write the confirmation number in the transaction description line. My computer is much neater now, too. Nancy P., email
