Do you buy in bulk and refill containers for cleaning products or do you buy smaller, more convenient sizes?

Depends on the product. Soaps and such i buy bulk, but most of the cleaning supplies i buy are cheaper to just buy normal size so thats what i do.

Quoting PEEK05:

Smaller sizes. I don't go through them often enough where bulk is necessary.

Sorry to bring up an unpleasant topic here, but someone mentioned they only clean with bleach. My best friend's mother died of a brain tumor at age 62. Another friend was telling us about his Mom coming down with brain cancer in her late 50's. The two of them started comparing details. Both of their mothers only cleaned with bleach. My mom just turned 88 years old. She's basically healthy and never cleaned with bleach. I know this is just three anecdotal stories, but why use a known toxin in your house when non-toxic options (like white vinegar) exist?

 I buy baking soda, vinegar, and bleach to clean.  I buy bleach once a year, at most...not a fan.

I buy normal amounts; one gallon of vinegar and normal baking soda.

I usually buy a big think of vinegar and make my own cleaning solution for that and also a big thing of bleach for and mix it with water both I put in smaller containers that are easier to use.
