1. After going through tons of half-gallon tubs of Ajax soap, I realized you can use Dawn Platinum and dilute it for a ridiculous amount of effective soap. It's like neverending compared to other dish soap brands. Has to be the Platinum concentrated variant of the Dawn soap or it doesn't count.

2. By using a dish brush to remove harder chunks of food, and the smooth, yellow side of a sponge to remove the remainder, you can effectively have a normal yellow/green sponge last months. Using the green side gets food chunks stuck and greatly reduces the lifespan of the sponge before it looks so nasty that you want to throw it out.
