Cleaning After the Holidays

S.C. Johnson Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner
After the shower, push the button, step out and let the Scrubbing Bubbles go to work. The waterproof unit hangs onto the shower head and is battery operated. There is a little rotating nozzle that shoots 360 degrees to kill mold and mildew and you don't have to stand around for the wake. Now, if they could just make something to wash the car at a push of a button.

Windex Dry Microfiber Cloths
Instead of pushing the dirt around, these cloths are smart, they pick it up. I really never thought about it but most cloths just push the dirt or dust into the air so it settles elsewhere. These cloths are made from micro-fibers that sort of eat up the dust and dirt, so when they are soiled they are filled with soil. The best factor of all is they don't streak glass and are cheaper than paper towels.

Oxi Clean and Kaboom
"How lazy can you get". The new Oxi Clean detergent ball is tossed into the washer and stays there for almost 25 washings. No measuring out and no leaky bottle to drip all over. Normally I would wait until the 25 washings were over to write this article, but the boss needs it now. Actually the advantages here are two fold: the detergent ball gets the job done and you are using a cold water rinse so the gas bill should be lower, especially if you have a lot of kids. In fact it could be a reason to have a lot of kids. This product comes from Orange Glow International and you know how that stuff cleans up. For an added help, try the rest of the Oxi Clean "power team": Oxi Clean Laundry Stain Remover and Oxi Clean Triple Power for the laundry. Easy to use and small doses make them last longer. General cleaning is best done with top tools like KABOOM Shower, tub, tile cleaner: KABOOM Ultra Scrub and KABOOM Never Scrub for the toilet. The common word is "kaboom" that's the sound of the dirt breaking up.

ORECK XL
So there's this guy on TV who comes across like your grandfather, talking all sorts of words like clean, relax, allergens, most powerful, so try it now. A vacuum. That's what he is talking about! A vacuum that is light to handle on stairs, easy to change the bag, and slim enough to go in the hall closet between the clothes, we all put it there, so I know you can do it! I am only interested in results and not the hot-flash-dancer-fancy-show. The vacuum comes with only 4 pages of instructions. That alone fulfills my motto- simple, clean, easy to use. Remember there is also a free 30 day trial period. The company is so confident that you'll like their product you won't return it. They even offer a once a year "tune up" at any Authorized Oreck Service Center. So look up the service center first because if it is close by then there is no excuse for not at least trying it.

Cheer True Fit
When your favorite shirt starts to look out of shape, you start to feel that you look out of shape too. I never thought of it but all that stretching of the fabric causes the fibers to lose strength and "bounce back" ability. The secret of Cheer True Fit is that it helps to keep those fibers lubricated to move smoothly across each other and reduce the actual pull and tug, wear and tear. Some fabrics like cotton react better than others and after being stretched out nothing will get it to "stretch in". Hit the website and get a free fashion evaluation right over the internet.

Febreze Air Effects
Each Thanksgiving about 20 minutes after dinner, my Uncle Louie would go into the bathroom with the New York Times and spend about 45 minutes to do his reading. Then when he opened the door, his presence would roll into the hallway, down the stairs and gently waft into the living room where my aunt would inevitably scream, "Louie! Close the damn door!" Then the bathroom would be uninhabitable for almost an hour. Holiday times are such fun memories. All they needed were just two squirts of Febreeze and the bathroom would be ready. Then the words would be "Who's next?"

Downy plus Whitening
There is an old world motto of "tell the truth and you fear no evil". So here's the truth. I don't buy enough clothes to keep in contemporary fashion, only to maintain a functional wardrobe. Alright maybe one shirt here and there, but generally I wear comfortable outfits without thinking about being up to date. I know it's not conventional thinking but so many days I am doing things not in the public eye and even when I am, who is that public that is eying me?- the same fellow workers that I notice wearing the same clothes on a two week schedule? Downy plus whitening actually refreshes the clothes and saves me money in the long run.

O-Cel-o Designer Sponges
The humble sponge has taken on a new identity as a decorator item. The very same product that homemakers have enjoyed now looks more contemporary and can even fit in with the kitchen decor. Two styles are available: Eclectic Organics, colored with earth tones in a geometric pattern and the other is Citrus Geometrics in fruit color tones and organic patterns. Now if they could just make a sponge that absorbs calories. One bite and all the fat is taken out with the next flush.

Tide to Go
While this is in the cleaning products section it should be in the office tools. Fast and convenient: two words that seem to be the basic tools of any office product. No one likes to get suitably dressed for work in the morning only to feel like a fool when a coffee stain appears around the morning break. The rest of the day is spent covering it up so nobody notices it. In the old days a tie would catch most stains and the shirt still looked good. The work environment today has eliminated a tie, except for future managers who are smart enough to wear the extra boost. So for everybody else, Tide has a portable stain stick that gets rid of the stains before they set and you are forced to shy away from bar hopping after work. Get real and look good all workday and beyond.

Magic American Products
The benefit of the Magic American Products is that they have been designed to be specific problem solvers. To lift candle wax there is the Candle Wax Lifter; to get rid of annoying stickers there is the Sticker Lifter and to get rid of dust that accumulates due to static electricity there is the Anti-static e-screen Wipes. Magic American laughs on the way to the bank, because their product works when the directions are followed. There are more solutions just waiting for problems, so get on the website and pick up a few ideas.
