In a recent post, he revealed the ultimate trick he swears by to get the most out of your cleaning disinfectant - creating his own reusable mop pads.
A 12-pack of Flash Speed Mop Replacement Cloths can cost £3.50 in supermarkets including Tesco and Morrisons.
So eliminating that regular cost could help save the pennies.
Speaking about his "life-saving" cleaning hack, Vernon said: "Girlies I wished someone told me about this…
"I thought to myself all of these single use products I’ve been using are filling up my bins? So I just thought of this Fabulosa hack.
"I went for Fabulosa's Multi Purpose cleaner in the Fizzy Bottles fragrance, as it smells unreal and does wonders for cleaning and shining."
To recreate Vernon's savvy trick, grab an empty 1-litre jar, and add both 500ml of water and 125ml of disinfectant.
After placing your mixture in a jar, add in your multipack of microfibre clothes, allowing them to soak for at least 30 minutes before use.

Vernon's cleaning clip has since gone viral with more than 110,000 views, and people are desperate to give it a try.
