Gifts Outside the Box

Cleaning's a drag. What better gift, then, but a whole-house cleaning? Perhaps this: A whole-house cleaning using only sustainable nontoxic cleaning products. That's just what cleaning services like Maid Brigade or Green Maid Inc. offer. Green cleaning products are just as effective without all the harmful toxins. It's good for any home and good for the environment. And if a professional cleaning isn't in your budget, offer to do it yourself for a personal touch that's sure to satisfy any spouse or roommate.
