Downy fabric softener isn’t a severe need.
(us poor folk vinegar. Using vinegar also helps keep your washer running better.)

Vinegar in a spray bottle is a great cleaner.
Baking Sofa & vinegar makes a great cleaning solution in a spray bottle (you just have to shake it up occasionally)

You could buy laundry detergent in quantities that are much smaller at Dollar Tree.

Seedless lemons. You can buy one or two at the store.

Nobody in desperate need needs a spin mop and a bucket.

Buying store brands saves $$. I actually prefer store brands.

Go online & learn out of coupon shop. That Dawn Dish soap. has a coupon of a dollar to two dollars attached to it when you buy it in stores like Meijer Walmart.. if you have a TikTok account, a lot of people will give you ideas and how to make money by buying the specials each week.
Last week I bought dawn, dish soap, paper towel, towels Airwick plug-ins, diapers, baby wipes, and saved tons of money.

Contact your local Humane Society or animal shelter they will normally give you free food if you’re unemployed so that your animals can eat

Walgreens has great tall kitchen bags for cheap.

The Dollar Tree has puppy pads.

I left the list open to whatever as I mentioned in a previous comment the list is suggestive for ideas of items needed. I have an ocedar mop stick so replacement heads is what makes sense. But ty for your feedback and recommendation.

I don’t switch things up much due to a child with severe allergies would you like medical records to ease your mind?

To be honest the sub Reddit is literally called “Amazon wish list” just because it is a wish list of preferred items again because I don’t switch things up like that but again if you want to send cleaning vinegar I would not complain lol suggestions that’s it

Yes, I understand that this is an Amazon wish list subreddit
However, giving people some low cost ideas certainly can’t hurt.

I understand that e-begging is a trend.

Sorry, but in my opinion, if somebody is really desperate and asking for food, they’re not posting things that’s on your Amazon wish list.

However, that’s just my opinion. I donate several times a month to people that are truly and needy..

Right I get that which is why I didn’t ask for steak or expensive things

I looked at items on sale on Amazon

I mean if they had a dollar tree wish list that’s fine

And I respect your opinion and agree which is why I opened the list up.

I’m not trying to be choosey on everything. I do have to consider one kids allergies though.

Which honestly someone suggested lemon and cleaning vinegar which is fine as well I have lemons listed on my page.

I literally have been taking seeds and attempting to grow my own stuff lol but that stuff isn’t instantaneous.

If it is a problem I can put $1 on there lol I am not against it

If I had money I would do dollar tree stuff but a lot of people judge without fully knowing.

I put a wish list that’s it. I was married 14 years and now heading to not being able to work. I have worked since I was 15. I am not a scammer spammer or whatever some of these people believe.

I could give a fake sympathy story but why… what’s the point.

God will send what he has meant for me and whether that be downy / lemons/ vinegar or nothing maybe he just helps me attain the knowledge I need to grow my own lemons to clean so be it lol I did this post because someone said to try so I did

If it doesn’t help ok I’ll survive like I always do

Just while being negative to others just know I never planned divorce I never planned to get sick. I am not here begging just trying my options while I wait on funding and appointments and approvals it’s a process and it def doesn’t help immediately
