Clean Wounds Using Soap
I would like to see soap being used to clean wounds, especially since it seems that no-one has any alcohol (which I think should be fairly common). Infection is extremely common in a zombie apocalypse, obviously, but soap and hot water is a realistic method of preventing that.

Yes

Well. in a game that has Disinfectant, and bottles of Whisky and Vodka ie. Alcohol that you could use to clean wounds >_< ... why? would you want soap to clean your wounds? you don't use a bar of soap to clean your wounds, period. pop off to the pharmacy and grab real medication instead.

It all depends on the wound. Most little cuts and knicks don't require anything more than soap and water, though it doesn't hurt too much to use other things.

I just find that most (maybe all) houses in the game don't have any alcohol and disinfectant is very difficult to find (unless you know exactly where to go to get some). I imagine the developers don't want it to be too easy to stay clean.

What do you mean? There's pharmacies filled with disinfectant. Also it can be found in bathroom vanities.

In a zombie apocolypse, every resource is valuable. If you could use soap to clean and treat minor wounds, you wouldn't just leave it as you would with any worthless junk.

Yes, but it's rare in houses and if you don't know where the pharmacies are then you'll have a lot of trouble finding any.
