Joy Unexpected | Does This Blog Make My Little Donkey Look Big?

October 07, 2004

A stay at home mother of three children who clips coupons, and gets her thrills off of beautifully scented cleaning products, that's what.

I'm out of CONTROL with the cleaning products. The JOYS of being a stay at home mom! And I'm not being sarcastic.

I lost my shit at Vons last night. They had all kinds of new cleaning products on sale. And I had coupons. AND THEY DOUBLE THEM!

Oh, the products I purchased! Where do I even begin? Let's start with the new love of my life(Oxiclean is so 5 months ago) The Magic Eraser. Let me just say, they call it "magic" for a reason! It took black marks off my front door that I had tried to get out with other products, but failed, in no time! And the best part? They were on sale, 2 for $4.00 and I had 2 $1.00 off coupons, which means THEY WERE FREE (because Vons doubles the coupons!) It doesn't get any sweeter than that for a housekeepin', cleaning product WHORE!

My new favorite laundry product? Downy Simple Pleasures fabric softener. (which, I got for $2.99, because it was on sale AND I had a coupon) Oh my God, THE SMELL!!!! I've already done 3 loads of laundry, and it's not even 9am. And the living room (where the clothes are piled on the sofa, because I don't believe in actually folding laundry) smells like heaven!

But it doesn't smell like heaven just because of the VANILLA, LAVENDER fabric softener, no sir.eeeee. There's also a new little contraption on my entertainment center that is periodically letting out little puffs of scented oil (that normally would cost almost $9.00 but because of the sale and my $1.00 off coupon only cost me $2.49!) A farting air freshener!

I love that my house is TOTALLY dirty right now, but SMELLS so beautifully clean. AWESOME.

I woke up so damn happy.

Because of my new cleaning products.

What the hell have I become?

Now see you could write reviews for home products on the web, and keep everyone informed of what to use and what to avoid!

Oh, honey, you have become a commercial.

that commercial where the dood opens the door, sniffs, closes the door, opens the door, sniffs, closes the door, opens the door, sniffs, closes the door, opens the door, sniffs, closes the door...you get the point.

There's a line in the movie "Top Gun" where they are in the fighter plane (of course) and Maverick hits the afterburners and goes straight up and Goose yells "Going Domestic!"

That's what you're doing.

hell, I'm not even a stay at home mom and know the joy of clipping coupons and getting stuff like that for free and on sale. I have a Wisp that I haven't used yet. I currently have the Oust Fan working and another Oust contraption in the kitchen. I love when my apartment smells all nice and fruity (citrus scented air fresheners are my favorite).

Heh... you have a farting air freshener, I have a farting mountain (I can watch Mt. St. Helen's fart from my living room window, and have been quite entertained by it!) It's a crazy world we live in.

farting air freshner - I want to see a commercial with that.

Ew, vanilla.

I'm diggin' the farting air freshener, though. I watch them on TV and covet them madly.

Don't EVEN with the "Oxiclean is SO five months ago!" You introduced me to that shit - the sun rises and sets on Oxiclean.

Although, yes, Mr. Clean's magic business is pretty damn good, too.

Ok, oxiclean is still GREAT, I just said that because, well, I have a short attention span and the eraser is my new favorite!

That Fabric Softener is awesome I bought some last week, the same one you did, and actually put it in my carpet shampooer and let me tell you, I will sleep on my floor just to be close to that scent, it's sooooo refreshing, and it has a calming scent to it also!

Don't trip about liking house cleaners I am the same way, I went to wally world last night and bought this new windex that has a special nozzle that allows you to even spray with the bottle upside down!

I know I am lame! But I LOVE cleaning products I actually collect them and every couple of days I switch from cleaner to cleaner depending on which frangrance I am in the mood for!

It's like a Calgon moment but with Mr. Clean!
