Towel Butler, Rubbed Bronze Color
I was tired of the towel holder hanging on the wall. I wanted something that would hold the towels to dry after a bath, but also something that would hold extra towels as well. I found a nice decorative towel holder at Walmart that would work perfectly for what …
Room Essentials Slipcover for Sofa
We recently purchased new furniture for our main living room, and instead of throwing away or giving away the old furniture, we decided to save it to use in the basement. Our basement is more or less a family room and a kid’s play room, so the furniture didn’t …
Lip Woolite MixNoir
Have you ever bought some household product just because you liked the way they were wrapped? Or just because you liked the design of the container or the box they were in? Well, that is what happened to me with this product.

Ajax Baking Soda Grapefruit Dish Liquid
Although I have a dishwasher, I still do some dishes by hand because some dishes are too delicate to be put in the machine or it is full already. In addition, pots, pans and frying pans take too much space in the dishwasher. I would end up only …
Oster 3-Quart Fondue Pot
Recently we received the Oster 3 Quart Fondue pot as a housewarming gift from my boyfriend’s parents. We have always wanted a fondue pot as we are huge fans of anything you can melt and dip things into, but we could never really justify the expense for something we …
Great Value Antibacterial Green Apple Dishwashing Liquid/Hand Soap
I came across this dishwashing soap during one time when my husband did grocery shopping at Walmart and bought it instead of our regular dish soap (Dawn in apple fragrance). At home, we usually buy the Dawn brand and always in the refill size (60 oz) because it is …
Rubbermaid Servin’ Saver
I love to cook and bake and of course being someone who does this a lot, I sometimes remain with leftovers or just find myself needing something small to store a small quantity of ingredients in.
When I was in the USA on vacation a few years back, I went …
Fitzroy Fabric Plasters
Some time ago I had a cut on one of my feet. It was taking quite a long time to heal since because of the place it was located, it would rub against most of my shoes and would get irritated, even when it was just beginning to heal. …
Unicorn Glue Stick
Personally, I really like Unicorn Glue Stick, main reason being it is really convenient and easy to use. I hate using liquid-form glue where the glue gets all over the place where I don’t want them to be. Being someone left-handed, I’m not blessed with the ability …
OXO Good Grips Mini Strainer
I own a few strainers and this is one of the ones that I use for straining smaller foods. It’s only three inches in diameter so I would only recommend it for small items. I have owned it for about a year now. I purchased it …
Cedar Dresser Drawer Dividers From Bed Bath and Beyond
I happened upon these drawer dividers while I was looking for other things at Bed Bath and Beyond. I guess you could say it was an impulse purchase. They had two choices of drawer dividers, a normal wood (pine?) and these cedar ones. I bought the last package of …
Black Kenmore 22.1 cu. ft Top Freezer Refrigerator (6937)
I love this refrigerator for so many reasons. It is a great deal and works great. Kenmore has always been a good brand name , and this is another wonderful product from them.

Raid Outdoor Fresh Scent Ant and RoachKiller

I purchased my Shark Steam Mop at Sears, after watching an infomercifial on it. I was impressed by the commercial and really needed something for my tile floors in my kitchen. I liked the fact that it was a steam mop, as the benefits of this steam …
Medport Fit and Fresh Start Breakfast Chiller
I sometimes have to eat on the go more often than I’d like. I work a full time job doing a lot of overtime, and I just don’t always feel like I have the time or even want to take the time in the morning to get a good …
Svelto Active Gel
Svelto is a product that I use for ages. My mother was buying it when I was small and Svelto for me became a synonim for dishwashing liquids. So when I talk about dishwashing liquids I never actually say dishawashing liquids but I say Svelto. In my opinion Svelto …
Mr Muscles toilet cleaner
For the first time I purchased this product from one of those door salesmen who keep coming with hundreds of different products and talk like as their every product is great. But let me tell you this toilet cleaner is really good product as it not only cleans toilet …
Nature’s Miracle Stain and Odor Remover
I just love it when products have the word “miracle” somewhere in their names because it just begs me to buy it and test that theory out. Which is probably part of their evil ingenious plan to begin with. But the Nature’s Miracle Stain and Odor Remover really do …
Yankee Candle Car Jar Sun and Sand
Another scent that I like a lot in the Yankee Candle Car Jar range is this one. I ended up trying this one the same time as the Coconut Bay one which I have recently reviewed. I got both scents in a mixed pack which is called the Seacoast …

Hefty Easy Flap Large 30 Gallon Trash Bags

Exclusive Extra Long Cuff Oven Gloves
I do bake lots of goodies especially during weekends because I want to please my family especially the little ones who love goodies so much. But I got one problem. I’d always end up with burned hands. I think I was born quite clumsy or should I say just …
Glad ForceFlex Garbage Bags
Living in a town where garbage collection occurs bi-weekly, I have had to deal with issues of finding a garbage bag that will handle a fair amount of debris and products that help cover up a certain kind of stench that happens in regards to trash.
When I saw an …

The Bethlehem Lighting Indoor and Outdoor Star of Bethlehem is a Christmas decoration that’s safe to use both indoors and outdoors and comes in a number of colors, including white and blue.

Koncis Roasting Tin

LA’s Totally Awesome Tile Grout Cleaner

Spic and Span Deodorizing Spray Cleaner
have bought other Spic and Span cleaning products in the past but never a spray cleaner. When Spic and Span Deodorizing Spray Cleaner in a clear 650ml bottle came on sale for just $3.99CDN at my local supermarket I just had to buy it. This is a brand …
Everblooming Hardy Geraniums From Breck’s
After today’s blustery snow shower in the suburbs west of Boston, do I dare presage spring planting time by reviewing unusual but beautiful multi-colored geranium ground cover from that old, reliable Breck’s seed and plant company? As the last piles of crusty snow melt away, let this writer fill …
Zum Clean Sink & Surface Scrub
I don’t see many cleaners that use natural ingredients or, even better, are one hundred percent natural, that is of course until I found the Zum Clean Sink and Surface Scrub. I’ve tried a couple Zum products over the years and have really liked them all for a variety …

Eureka Limelight Green Capture 8803AVZ vacuum

Zum Clean Aromatherapy Laundry Soap Liquid Lavender Scented
I hate my washing machine. It came with our house when I moved in, and it has been the bane of my existence ever since. I don’t even like doing laundry on any level to begin with and couple that with the fact that my washing machine is ancient …
Hurricane Wet & Dry Power Vac
Often I find myself waiting in the car at school bus stops, or while other’s shop and it’s hard to sit idly by. Little by little I’ve found ways to keep myself occupied such as keeping a book on hand, or an emery board near by, but …
Murphy’s Oil Soap
I purchased Murphy’s Oil Soap at the grocery store for $3.49 for a 32 oz. bottle. I needed something to clean the wood cabinets in the kitchen and the baseboards. I heard that Murphy’s Oil Soap does a good job and keeps the wood looking fresh as well as …
The Home Store Fall Leaves Oven Mitts
I never really have been the one to use oven mitts. I always figured a dish cloth or sponge was sufficient for removing a hot pan out of the oven. I had been doing it like that for years and did not think I would change. That I until …
Bounce awakenings fabric freshener
I recently received a sample of bounce awakenings fabric freshener. My favorite thing about this fabric freshener was the smell. It is called awakenings and it does have an awake smell to it. I know that smells kind of silly and you may not understand that but I really …
Non-Stick Tortilla Shell Makers
My children all adore tortillas but I was becoming a little bored of using them only to create wraps and homemade tortilla chips. I’d bought ready made tortilla shells in the past but found transporting and storing them was difficult as they’re so delicate. Â It took quite a lot …
Stainless Steelo No Rust
For years I use to buy the cheapest bran of steel wool on the market. I figured that all steel wool was the same and why pay extra for something that doesn’t last more than one or two times. I use to think that the little rust stains on …
World Market Mix And Match Square Wall Plaques
I liked the graphic yet organic look of these wall plaques in the store. I wasn’t sure exactly how I would use them, but I thought they might be able to help up the style quotient of my horribly outdated beige and brown bathroom. Actually when I first …
Zebra Plant
While Zebra Plants add a great deal of depth and beautiful ambiance to any home setting, these rare striped plants are not easy to keep alive. They certainly look georgous, and any time I have had one in my home, I have been sure to receive an abundance …
Air Wick
We had pet odour so I bought Air Wick 2 in 1 Air Freshener in Rain Garden scent at my local supermarket. Often I prefer to light scented candles, but I had company coming and was in a hurry. I knew Air Wick was a trusted name in air …
