I've been so good at getting it "free" after rebate that I've never considered making my own.

I just use water. Now I'm thinking about adding a tiny amount of glass cleaner to it to help keep things clearer...

At our Walmart its $3 a gallon, when they even have it.

I did find it at Advance Auto Parts for $2 a gallon last weekend. I bought a few, since there are no local stores here. I can get it when I go downstate though.

The simple green/alcohol idea sounds good, Ill look into that. Drygas is still really cheap thankfully, and the paint on the wagon is so far gone that I dont care if it hurts it more. I might making up some sometime and see if it freezes in the bottle.
