Vinegar has a multitude of uses around the house. Stain removal from plastics is one. Another is to use vinegar on a cloth and clean your windshield wiper blades with it. It will make them like new!
 
I add vinegar to my laundry wash instead of fabric softener.
I have heard that 1) it acts as a fabric softener 2) keeps colors brighter 3) helps get pet hair off clothes


If I have time, I like to clean glass/mirrors with a vinegar/water solution and newspaper. (Learned that trick when I waitressed - that's how we cleaned all the mirrors and windows in the restaurant!)
 
My daughter was given a child's digital camera, but the rubber on it smelled like cigarette smoke. I got a washcloth, wet it with vinegar, and wiped down the rubber parts of the camera with it. No more cigarette odor!
