Benefits of Vinegar (life hacks for house chores)

So, recently I saw a video in Facebook on how vinegar can help in solving some of your house chore problems. One of them is how to use vinegar and baking soda to unclog your blocked drainage. I shared the video with my mom and she decided to go get the items to do our own little experience at home since the sink in one of our washrooms is blocked.

Went to the supermarket in Aeon to get the stuff but all we found was artificial white vinegar and distilled white vinegar. Didn't know what are their differences but we went on with the artificial one since the distilled one looked more diluted.

Experience #1:

I just view the video quickly to see which one goes first, the vinegar or baking soda.

Answer: Baking soda

So, I poured a quarter of it then I mixed with some water and then poured a half glass of vinegar in another glass. Then we poured them into the sink as mentioned in the video. No burst of bubbles / reaction similar to the video. Maybe mixing the baking soda with water was a NO NO? Attempt #1 FAILED.

Experience #2:

I view the video again to realize that it's half a glass of baking soda and a full glass of vinegar. We have another 3/4 left of the baking soda and it's almost half of a glass so we decided to pour the whole thing and this time, we just gonna pour it raw. Together with a glass of vinegar, we tried again. And again, there is no such vigorous reaction as seen in the video. 

But we did notice that the water flow is slightly better and faster than before. Attempt #2 = HALF FAILED?

Then I just poured the remaining vinegar to wash down the baking soda's residue. There was some 'bloop bloop' sounds coming from inside, so maybe there's some magic working down there.

Anyhow, the rest of the tips seem pretty legit to me. Like how to remove those stubborn sticky stains from stickers/tapes or remove wrinkles off your clothes without ironing.
