You will need:
500g pkt bicarb soda ($1.45 from Coles)
Clean margarine container & lid
Punch small holes all over the lid of the margarine container to make a shaker. Put the bicarb in the container, put on the lid and use it to sprinkle carpets once a week. Leave 20 -30 minutes (go clean the bathroom or have a cuppa) and then vacuum up. Carpets are cleaned and refreshed and smell good. You can add a few drops of essential oil but make sure it's the real stuff, if you want to add a fragrance. I don't bother, just sprinkle and vacuum. Works just as well as the bought ones and costs much less. One 500g packet lasts me about a month if I use it every week in the family room and hallway so cheap carpet freshener at 35c a week.
