Homemade Oxiclean

So, after looking online for Oxy-clean to soak some cloths I have that got stained, and gasping at the price, I looked up how to make my own. Its simply 2 tablespoons washing soda to one cup hydrogen peroxide. Both of which are fairly inexpensive. http://www.ehow.com/how_5426015_make-oxi-clean-save-money.html  .  I ordered the peroxide, but had a hard time finding washing soda. None of the stores in my town sell it and it was pricey to order online and pay shipping for...so I looked up how to make washing soda (go Google!).
To make washing soda, you simply dump some baking soda into a flat pan and then bake it at 400 degrees until it turns grainy in texture.
So now I don't have to purchase another container of stain remover ever again! hehe
I'm also looking into patterns for making my own underclothing. I decided I will never buy clothing (at least new clothing) in a store again (I'm on a mission here!!) and found several patterns that I can try out. I'll update you on that, but, no, I won't be modeling and posting photos. Sorry.
