When my mother was patching us up 40 years ago, she swore by hydrogen peroxide, while every other kid on the block got mercurochrome. I can’t tell you why she kept to this practice (was it cheaper?), but it seemed to work just fine, and we found the foaming impressive.

It was probably cheaper, yes. It’s amazingly cheap today, I think a big bottle costs less than a dollar.
