Wonder Mop and $100 Giveaway!


Yes, I am on a cleaning kick -what can I say? The holidays, cooking, friends and family. I have to have a clean home. And I like my floors to be immaculate. With a toddler that is apt to pick up an errant piece of -well, anything (!) off the floor and eat it I need my floor to be spotless. I have found that the key to keeping the floor really clean is a great mop. Thanks to the Family Review Network my year long search is now over.

The Libman Wonder Mop is absolutely wonderful! My favorite feature is the washable mop head, no more struggling to ensure the mop head is clean by soaking and soaking and soaking. When I am finished mopping my floors I simply remove the mop head and throw it in the washing machine. Easy peasy. I love it.

My floors love it too. My ceramic tiles have never looked so good!

Would you like to win one? Enter to win $100 worth of fabulous prizes:
Wright's Silver Cream
Perfect Planet Floor Cleaner
Weiman Furniture Wipes
Weiman Granite Wipes
Weiman Stainless Steel Wipes
Wonder mop
WonderFiber Cloth

Bumkins

I have been a big fan of the Bumkins brand for awhile. Mekhi has four of the bibs and I just love them. When the Mom Bloggers Club asked me to review Bumkins it was a no-brainer. Review a brand that I already love? No problem.

Here is a little info about Bumkins from the website:
"Bumkins merchandise is only made from natural or non-toxic fabrics, such as organic cotton and our signature PVC, phthalate and BPA free waterproof material. The majority of Bumkins product offerings are manufactured in the United States, further strengthening our responsible business practices and affirming a commitment to supporting the local economy."

Did I mention I love Bumkins? The bibs have a catch pocket that comes in handy for that food that misses Mekhi's mouth. In addition to the bibs that are easily cleaned and ready for the next use, Bumkins has a nursery clothing line. This was news to me. I was blow away when my package arrived and the soft feel of the organic cotton Dr. Seuss themed coverall was amazing. I could not wait to try it on Mekhi and he eagerly obliged.

As you can see Mekhi had a grand time running around in his coveralls. I think this is the perfect outfit for him to wear on Christmas morning and for lazy days hanging around the house. The quaiity is excellent and it is so easy to get on and off that Mekhi was able to get out of it by himself!

I am now a fan of their clothing line and of course I still love the bibs. Lucky for you Bumkins currently has a promotion running that I want to tell you about.
Bumkins Grinchmas Gift and Contest! With any Bumkins Dr. Seuss Purchase receive Free Grinch Superbib and automatically be entered to win a four pack of Dr.Seuss How the Grinch Stole Christmas Ornaments! Just enter grinch08 at checkout to receive your complimentary bib.

Wieman Cleaners $100 Giveaway!

I have mentioned that I am not a domestic diva but with Thanksgiving right around the corner I have to be prepared. I enjoy cooking and cleaning comes along with the territory. Thanks to the Family Review Network I will be using Weiman products this year. Earlier this week I cooked a nice meal of Lentil Loaf (similar to meat loaf but for vegetarians), gravy, green beans, and biscuits. A wonderful meal and of course I made a bit of a mess. This was a perfect time to try out my Weiman Cook Top Wipes and Granite Wipes for my counters. As you can see from the before and after pictures these wipes really cleaned up!
















The Cook Top wipes left my stove top streak free and did a great drop of cleaning. I have always had a hard time with the streaks on the black stove but this time the wipes were great. If you want to try them they are available at Ace Hardware, Expo Design Center, True Value and Wal-mart stores and suggested retail price is $5.49 for 30 wipes.

As you can see the granite wipes left my counter spiffy clean and you can see the reflection. I have to admit that I used the wipes before cooking and just needed a light touch-up but the shine is clear in both photos. The granite wipes are $5.49 too and available at Target, True Value and Wal-Mart Superstores.

In addition to cooking messes, having a toddler around leaves the floor a mess after mealtime. The area around the high chair is the worst. Since my son plays on the floor I look for cleaners that are all-natural and Weiman's Perfect Planet Floor Cleaner and Polish fit the bill. I love that they are free from harsh chemicals and they work well on my ceramic tiles.

I especially like that I squirt and mop with no need for a full bucket of water sloshing around. I can simply squirt clean and do the whole floor, I love it. The shine left by the polish is exceptional. The Perfect Planet Floor Cleaner and Polish are available at www.weiman.com or by phone 888.281.6400 and at select retailers including Jewel-Osco, Menards and Hannaford.

After using these products I will be looking to Weiman for my kitchen cleaning needs. And you can try them too. I have a great giveaway for one of my readers!

Shop.com

Although Black Friday is the "official" first day of the holiday shopping season I am sure some of you have already started. Yes, I know the economy sucks and we are all cutting back but some shopping is going to be done. I don't know about you but I do not like shopping during holiday season. I barely like shopping any other time of the year. Unless of course it is online shopping.

I lurve online shopping. Online shopping is the best. And now, MomCentral has introduced me to the best of the best - Shop.com Think online mall. Even better - think online mall with all the sales posted, site search by store, by item. Think - online shopping nirvana! And did I mention the prizes? Oh yes, there are prizes! Every week of the holiday season they are giving away "favorite things" chosen by Shop.com users. I just entered to win a Wii (wish me luck) and next week they are giving away a flat screen tv. But that's not all - they are also giving away a cruise for two - you just need to go see for yourself. Shop.com has made it easy, click the contest button and enter to your heart's delight.

Shop.com is THE PLACE to do your online shopping. I know I will be there and I am sure the stores that you frequent are there too. Check it out, I will be shopping from the comfort of my home at Nordstroms. Where will you be shopping at Shop.com?
