Swiffer

Have you tried any of the Swiffer products?  I have several of the Swiffer line of products in my cleaning closet, and they are great for quick clean ups.  The real reason why I really love Swiffer products is because my 5 year old son loves them.  He thinks they are great when he gets to help me clean, he actually WANTS to help!  He loves the duster and he even has his own Swiffer Sweeper Vac.  I replaced his toy vacuume with the Swiffer when his toy vacuume broke and he thinks it's the best.  Since he takes ownership of it, he loves getting it out after meal time to quickly pick up any crumbs that may have fallen from the table.  I just love how it's teaching him responsibility and to clean up after himself! 

I was able to purchase all of my Swiffer products with coupons from the Home Made Simple coupon book mentioned here.  Swiffer has a great money back guarantee going on now through 6/30/2010.  If you purchase one of the participating products and find that you do not like it for ANY (and I stress ANY) reason, you can submit the receipt and UPC within 30 days for a full refund of your purchase price (if you used coupons to purchase the item, they will not deduct the coupons from the purchase price when refunding your money).  The form does not even ask you to explain what you don't like about the product.  To read more about this guarantee and download the form for submission go here.  There's also a link to printable coupons for Swiffer products there too.

If the cost of the refills for the Swiffer products is what is keeping you from making a purchase, you might want to think again.  At the last K-mart double coupon sale I was able to get quite a few bottles of refill solution and different cleaning pads for all my Swiffer products really cheap.  Here's a great article from MoneySavingMadness.com on other ways to make owning and using Swiffer products affordable.  I haven't tried any of these suggestions yet, but when I run out of pads and solutions I will be giving it a whirl!
