Do you have a tile floor? If so, stop (STOP!) what you are doing (reading blogs, obviously) and go get your credit card. You need to buy this broom:
I know what you’re thinking: “Uh-huh. Sure, Jennie. That looks totally lame.” But trust me. This will become your new best friend*. Plus it’s only $10.
Do you have obnoxious grout? Does it mock you with its bionic crumb-hording powers? Can you simply not get all the dust and junk out of the nooks and crannies? This broom is the answer! (it works on any floor: hardwood, even carpet. It’s brilliant at removing pet hair. But tile is my bête noire, and I’m guessing if you have it you hate it too.)
You can sweep with this thing, mop with it, whatever. It’s made of rubber (I know. Weird.) but I like to say it’s made of pure awesomeness.
Get it at the Flylady shop for $10 (I think shipping is another $6 or so. Just pay for the shipping. Don’t be a cheapskate and try to find something similar that costs less somewhere else. Because that’s a waste of your time.)
P.S. Extra brownie points if you know where I got the title for this post.
You should do a video or something, to prove it's worth. 🙂
(I have a bone to pick with you though…. you posted about ICE CREAM on one of your blog posts recently…. and because of that post, I have been severely craving ice cream ever since! I have had ice cream since, but none of it was quality enough to cure me of this craving. So it's all your fault, I demand you send me some ice cream. 😉 )
(okay I'm totally kidding, but you really did make me crave ice cream!)
Oh, how I love Flylady!
Now I need some tile…
I'm sick of cleaning the grooves in our hardwood floors so I'm going to give this a try – and the title sounds like something from They Might Be Giants – but that's just a guess 🙂
Are you for real? Cause don't get my hopes up if this broom really isnt' something special. As you know, I despise tile. With a passion. but if there is something out there you can actually clean it with, I will pay just about anything for it! I agree with whoever said you should do a video of it. I need a visual testimonial!
Is this like the ones that they use in salons?
I like the sound of it, I like the look of it, I think that I need one.
My mother-in-law has something kind of like it and I have to say I hate it! I've used it at her house to clean up after dinner (on her linoleum floor) and it bugs me. I feel like it pulls and drags on the floor and takes a lot of elbow grease to get the thing to move. Am I doing something wrong? MIL has nothing more than glowing remarks? Am I a mop/broom idiot? : )
I think that I have one of these–in black, though—shows you how much I have in my garage that I don't know about….
Ha–I do know where you got that title.

Where are my points?
