Let Emily Buy It


If you've seen these on tv or at the store and are wooed by it's promises (as I was) I would like to let you all know you can save your money. I tried them and I saw zero results (scrubbing bubbles? They need to change their name to Lazy Bubbles That Do Jack). They don't just gradually disappear in a week or so either (as advertised), they gradually disappear for about a week until the last half of the gel hardens and cakes to the side of your toilet device until YOU scrub it away (how's that for irony?). Lastly, it kind of smells bad. To be fair, I bought the green one which I think was citrus so the blue one just may smell like heaven, but this household won't be finding out.

By the way, I've always really liked Scrubbing Bubbles Bathroom Cleaner, so the company isn't totally worthless- just this product.

By the way again, this isn't going to become a regular thing like "Let Bill Buy It*", but perhaps if I happen to have an opinion about a product I've tried, I will state my opinion about it for the good of the masses. While we are going there (and to save myself a post), if you haven't tried Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser yet, get your butt to the store and purchase some. They are the best things in the world of cleaning products- they bring a tear to my eye. I swear they really are magic.

*Let Bill Buy for all you non Utahns, is a little blurb done by a local newscaster where he buys a product and tests it out for us to see if it lives up to scratch (they rarely do, except the SlapChop, that product is King!)

Glad to know it is hudsauce. Won't waste my money on it! I love magic erasers, I just got a 4 pack a few days ago!

I tried the same thing, Em, even the green kind. Wasn't impressed either, agree that the smell was bad, too. I do have to say that mine never hardened, they did gradually dissolve over time, but I noticed no cleaner toilets. I never bought it again. I'll just keep scrubbing my 4 stupid dirty toilets the old fashioned way. I better get on that before y'all come!

I finally found Magic Erasers!! I was at Pamida because I needed Peroxide because I got a bloody nose on my pants (sidenote, peroxide works amazing to get blood out and didn't bleach my khaki's!! And it dries fast when you spill it all over your crotch and look like you wet your pants! But that's another story...). Anyways, there was one little lonely box that had gotten abandoned there, and I snatched it up!! Yaay!!

Love B

So this is what Emily is up to late at night after I've gone to bed...Reviews on toilet cleaning products. Wow the things that get done after 10pm are really amazing!!

Emily said...

What's SlapChop?

This guy always made Rob and I chuckle with this infomercial and then the shamwow followed. Then, he was in the news for getting arrested for slapping a hooker in his hotel room and the Slapchop took on a new meaning and became even more funny and famous in my household.

HAHAHAHA!! I never heard that story, so funny. I have seen those infomercials, that guy is a wac job.
