40 Things You Should Stop Buying and Start making!

Sure, you can go to the store and buy pretty much everything. Convenience is a great thing, but often when it comes to processed food, cleaning/laundry and health/beauty products, this convenience comes at a cost, and I am not just talking about the financial cost, I am also talking about the health cost…
