This is a very interesting debate. Last evening, my friends and I partook in a nerdy pumpkin carve-off and had a ball. I casually surveyed them amidst our carving fiasco to find out their thoughts and buying habits when it comes to cleaning products.
Here were the characters I had...
Full disclosure, I'm not a fan of hand sanitizer because I much prefer good old fashioned handwashing with soap and water. I feel it's cleaner, I can't explain it, but I do. However, at times, I can't access 'old reliable' and hope to goodness I don't accidentally touch my face or...
We've all seen the commercial - our favourite fast-talking felon is back with a new cleaning tool that will solve all of life's problems for the low, low price of $19.95 (plus shipping and handling of course). Well, I ordered one and released a video on my YouTube channel...
You likely have all these items in your house as it stands; so this should be relatively simple to put together.
Remember, it is wise to use these as a compliment to products you buy in-store. Store bought products and homemade products both serve a purpose. I use about 50%...
Summer is coming! Or, depending on where you live, summer is here. In Toronto, where I live, the temperatures are starting to soar. And while I’m so excited for summer BBQs, pool hangouts, and all kinds of summer fun, I am not excited for sweaty feet and stinky shoes.
So...
You've seen the commercials. You know the products. We're told our homes are a veritable hotbed for all germs, spores, bacteria, mold, and mildew. It's quite miraculous that we aren't all battling plague 24/7. Ok, sarcasm aside, I think we're being a little oversold on the whole notion of...
In 1999, Proctor & Gamble introduced us to Swiffer. A Swiffer can be best explained like a razor and blade sales strategy. You purchase the razor handle for a great price, and you'll always have to pick up the refill for that exact handle and pay whatever price the...
Do Steam Cleaners actually work? We investigate..
Infomercial-mania
I adore the art (and science) of infomercials. I remember sitting up late at night when I was younger, watching the food dehydrator infomercial and being mesmerized by Rom Popeil’s ability to sell something seemingly useless and make it look so fascinating and...
This is a standard (read: base model) handheld vacuum that is designed to compete with a base model handheld vacuum.
The days of dust busting are over.
The Dyson DC30 is perfect for cleaning up between cleanings, collecting crumbs and cleaning up after craft and small DIY projects around the house....
Does Cyber Clean really work?
We get asked about Cyber Clean all the time. Does it work? Is it good? I’ve always had my doubts. But I laid out the $7 to purchase a package and test it out for you all.
I always read package claims when doing a review,...
We never clean our cleaning tools, right? Come on, admit it. You're alone, we can't see you, raise that hand! We know the importance of cleaning and maintaining most stuff, but our cleaning tools are often forgotten.
Just because it is used for cleaning doesn't mean that it is self-cleaning. ...
It would blow your mind just how many things you can clean using simple baking soda.Yup, that little box of white powder that sits in your fridge can do a lot more than sit, in the fridge. So, what the heck is this baking soda stuff anyways?
According to Wikipedia:

Vinegar. It's pungent, acidic, tangy, makes you crumple up your nose and tear up, or brings up memories of eating fish and chips out of newsprint. Whether vinegar brings a smile or a scrunch to your face, you can't argue the tons of household uses it has. So because...
Whether you know it or not, your house has a unique smell. It can range from a light, fresh scent all the way to a musty, stale, wet dog kind of smell. The unfortunate part is, you get so used to this smell that you don't even recognize it...
I have this white board in my office, and it has all of my strategies, ideas and sayings about work, along with a few doodles that my husband made for me (which I don't have the heart to erase). It's pretty personal so I'm not going to photograph it. ...
