Absolutely! Other useful and cheap cleaning things are rubbing alcohol, white vinegar (great for floors), "washing soda", borax, and seconding @JacobCoffinWrites@slrpnk.net about the castille soap, too. I also find sea salt a useful-everywhere ingredient in both household and personal-care cleaning -- it dissolves dirt, scrubs and disinfects. I'm a pretty picky cleaner, but with those things and a good microfiber cloth, no dirt stands a chance.
I got into making all my own cleaning stuff thanks to a sensitivity to chemical fragrances, but it's saved so much money and prevented so much waste compared to buying branded products, I'd never go back. Thanks for the great topic \o/
