Vinegar is an awesome cleaner. So is baking soda. I use cloth diapers on my son and a bit of baking soda in the laundry is sometimes all I use...everything comes out sparkly clean!
You can make a paste with the baking soda for some things, and I know my grandmother uses vinegar for lots of stuff. Lemme check another website right quick...

27 Ways to Clean with Baking Soda | The New Homemaker

If you scroll to the bottom, it has uses for vinegar, environmentally friendly cleaners, etc.

Good luck!!
