Man. That stuff is awesome. No more cookies-taken-to-friends-at-Christmas-time falling off the paper plate from under the edge of non-sticking plastic wrap. Just genius. How does it even work? It sticks to my oily finger. It sticks to paper. It sticks to plastic. It sticks to itself. It peels off...and STICKS AGAIN!

If it weren't about 3 times as expensive as regular plastic wrap, I'd use it for everything! Maybe I should see if they'd pay me to endorse it. Along with those magic eraser people...

Magic Erasers??? YES, YES, YES!!! Praise the Lord! They're a gift from heaven.

beefche · Profuse Pontificator

Magic erasers???? What the heck are those? Can they erase this day? I'd like to just erase the time from around 12:34 to 5:07. Please get on that. Thank you.

Poncho29 · Senior Bucketkeeper

Magic Erasers is a cleaner that gets marks off of walls. Everything from crayon to markers, pencil etc. It's kid proof.
You want an eraser to erase most of your day? Ha! I wouldn't mind having an eraser that erased most of the year for me, so have your people call my people.

beefche · Profuse Pontificator

Does it do anything else? I don't have a problem with crayon on the wall...I learned a long time ago that I shouldn't do that. biggrin

And when I get people, I'll have them call yours.

Euphrasie · Senior Bucketkeeper

It takes care of scuffs on tile/vinyl/linoleum/floorboards... Marks on door frames, rust in sinks... It's magic, I tell you.

Cocobeem · Keeper of the Holy Grail

Hold the phone! It takes care of rust in SINKS???

*sprints to the kitchen, tossing empty egg cartons and cottage cheese containers out from under the sink in search of her precious 4 boxes of Magic Erasers*

What the-- You're telling me Press and Seal sticks MORE THAN ONCE?!?

*adds this to next week's shopping list, budget shmudget*

"What the-- You're telling me Press and Seal sticks MORE THAN ONCE?!?"

YES!! It is great stuff. I have already got one convert to that item! (the sis w/whom I do my calling, she started using it due to me. Yeah! So can I get some sort of referral gift from the company? (just kidding) :)
The other good thing is that unlike plastic wrap, it doesn't stick to itself when attempting to unravel it.

The relatively new item I like are the "plop-a-cookie" where you drop the already made refrigerated cookie pieces onto the cookie sheet, even one step easier than the ones where you "break" the dough along the scored lines. I like these as you can easily just make a couple cookies, and make the rest some other time.

PollyAnna · Senior Bucketkeeper

I have to tell you beef my girl... when I was reading this thread to hubby I got absolutely hysterical with laughter because of your first post about the miracle erasers... when I got to this part:And when I get people, I'll have them call yours.

I was laughing so hard hubby though he was going to need to give oxygen! I was crying-laughing... and couldn't even read it...

beefche · Profuse Pontificator

Gee whiz, Polly! I'll start putting warning signs on my posts....Sorry, Mr. Polly. biggrin

Magic Eraser gets my vote. My wife even got the school janitors into them. They had never been able to get some of the pencil and pen marks off the walls. If you have children, they truly are miraculous!

Cocobeem · Keeper of the Holy Grail

Yes, they are. I bore my testimony about them just last month.

PollyAnna · Senior Bucketkeeper

Well, this thread didn't start out as a spiritual one... But I am REALLY glad it could provide that service!

Ooh. I thought of another product to tout here. Baker's Joy. It's like non-stick cooking spray...but with flour. In the can. You use it for baking whenever you're supposed to grease and flour a pan. It takes like 1/10 the time, and there are no missed corners. It works super well--I haven't had a cake come out in pieces since.

PollyAnna · Senior Bucketkeeper

Oh yeah... that stuff is great... Course I would actually need to "bake something" myself... Oh Daughter...

salesortonscom · Wise and Revered Master

Another great product is the Bore Snake. This cut my gun cleaning time by more than one half. You just drop the Bore Snake down the barrel and pull it through. I would be hard pressed to do without it.

Cocobeem · Keeper of the Holy Grail

Another great product are the DoubleStuf Mint Oreos. Excellent crumbled on a pudding/whip cream cup.

salesortonscom · Wise and Revered Master

Liquid Smoke. You can give your foods a smoky flavor with just a tea spoon of this stuff. Great for marinades.

PollyAnna · Senior Bucketkeeper

Now we are rollin'.........................

Just to throw a small derail into my own thread... I am thinking I NEED one of "THESE"...

Cocobeem · Keeper of the Holy Grail

I just love this cooler weather.

PollyAnna · Senior Bucketkeeper

With ya' there kiddo! I do NOT do summer well... (or winter, but that is still a few months away.)

Hey, Euph, because of you I bought some Magic Eraser thingys today. OH MY GOSH!!!! I have seen the light! I'm a believer!

I would like to bear my testimony of the truthfulness of Magic Eraser. It is the only true Eraser on the earth today.

PollyAnna · Senior Bucketkeeper

Get the oxygen!!!!!

beefche · Profuse Pontificator

Sorry Polly! I forgot the warning label! Yoo hoo! Mr. Polly! She's needs O2 STAT!

Poncho29 · Senior Bucketkeeper

Chlorox Wipes! I'd like to sing the praises of Chlorox Wipes! Can't live without 'em now!
If you haven't converted yet, then get on it right away.

beefche · Profuse Pontificator

Oh, yes...I gained a testimony of those long ago. Love them!

*sniff* It warms my heart to see so many coming to an awareness of the Truth.

Just cleaned out some mystery spill in my fridge with Clorox Wipes this morning!

Euphrasie · Senior Bucketkeeper

Okay, so ladies and gentlemen...

I need a miracle product for the shower.

Something that doesn't depend on me scrubbing so hard my knuckles bleed. And that doesn't leave a grainy film on the tile.

By the way, the Scrubbing Bubbles automatic cleaner is pretty good for prevention. It's just the deep cleaning I need a product for...

hiccups · Future Queen in Zion

I like barkeeper's friend for the shower. Works well for me.

glumirk · Senior Member

for the deep cleaning, I like Easy Off BAM. It does take scrubbing, but you can watch it work while you are scrubbing. In my old apartment we had a gray sink because it was never taken care of at all. I'd spent like 30 minutes countless times trying to wash it with a scrubbing brush and various cleaning agents, but I figured it was stained forever. Then my mom got me Easy Off BAM and I could see it coming clean when I was scrubbing! It did take 45 minutes, but with how old that apartment was, I'm sure it was nothing compared to how long it took for that stain to set! Just make sure you wet the surface and then let it soak for a few minutes like the directions say.

PollyAnna · Senior Bucketkeeper

I have to second the Easy-Off BAM & BAM Remix.. Right up there with Magic Erasers and my beloved Press'n Seal ... Personally I have found that you have to be lazier than glummy though... spray it and forget it for a while (like a couple hours) if you have really stubborn stains or pourice ceramic...

Be sure and lock it away...

My steam cleaner. Effective deep-cleaning and mopping/disinfecting with no chemicals! Just tap water! Pretty awesome.
