Two New Recommended Products!



When I first started blogging way back in 2009, I reviewed products and brands, much like all the other bloggers.

There may not be as many of us around now, and social media has changed the face and popularity of blogging with social media influencers taking over brand marketing by the 100s.

This blog - has transformed itself, and me, over the years.  But, I still like to share new and innovative products I find from time to time.

Last month, I ran across two items from a savings/sales website blogger.  They came highly-recommended. They were both under $20 (one under $10!), so I ordered them.

I wanted to share them here because they both worked as promised, and I was super happy with my purchases.

I am including the Amazon links for easy purchase.  Disclaimer: I am an Amazon Associate, so I do receive a small incentive for promoting anything sold through or on Amazon.  (I purchased my two items through an Amazon Associate, so from one influencer to another - we all share in the washing of hands and passing on of information.)

Enough of the small talk.  Let's talk about the fun products I found on Amazon last month!  I hope you enjoy them as much as I am at home.

  • First up - E-Cloth Window Cleaner Kit

    Window and Glass Cleaning Cloth, Streak-Free Windows with just Water, Microfiber Towel Cleaning Kit for Windows, Car Windshield, Mirrors - Tangerine Orange

    This e-cloth window cleaner kit comes in three colors, but when I bought mine the tangerine orange color was 20% off and on sale for $11.99.

    This product has been a game changer for me.  I am so picky when it comes to cleaning bathroom mirrors, door glass, or car windows.  There is nothing I have found completely removes swipes, swishes, or swirels.  

    I've tried it all - paper towels, t-shirt cloths, newspaper, vinegar-based products.  Nothing complely removes the marks from glass, and it is so frustrating thinking your car windows are sparkly clean and then driving through sunlight to see all the places you either missed or that still have swipe marks.  I cannot stand that!

    So with a blogger raving about this product, and only $12, I gave it a shot.  Hey, guess what?  It works.  Perfectly.  Just like it says.  Imagine that.  A product that actually lives up to its promises.

    The kit comes with two towels.  One is a waffle knit towel.  You run it under water to get it wet and then wring it out.  Then you start cleaning the glass you want to clean.  No product required.  The second towel is a polishing cloth.  After you have cleaned the window, and while it is still wet, you dry and polish with the second cloth.

    Miraculously, all the windows, doors, and mirrors I have used these cloths on have turned out beautiful and sparkly.  I think it's well worth the $12 when you think about how much a bottle of glass cleaner or Windex costs these days.

    You only have to wash the waffle towel once a week or less, depending on how dirty it gets from the windows you clean.  Eah kit comes with specific instrutions on how to care for the towels.

  • The second product I want to recommend is this - Sprayway Water-Based Stainless Steel Cleaner, 15 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

    I don't think this is a new product, and I've seen these sprays in stores before.  I've just never bought one!

    Right now, this product is 57% off at Amazon - selling for under $5!  What a steal!

    I love this produt.  Keeping stainless steel clean is such a chore.  It seems it never wants to stay clean, and no matter how many times you clean or wipe it, the stains just seems to stay.

    This product couldn't be more easy to use.  Simply aim and spray (directions are on the can, if you need them).  Spray, wipe, sparkle.  I loved using it.

    So far, I've used it on my microwave, oven, dishwasher, and of course, refrigerator.  It worked flawlessly.

    I'm mad at myself for not buying this spray earlier in my "Mom" and "housewife" career when I saw it in the grocery or home improvement stores.  It could have saved my time and elbow grease!

    At under $5 a can, go ahead and order a can today or maybe stock up and buy a few.

Well, that's it.

Follow the products links, above, to order these products and save yourself time, work, and - most importantly - money.  And then, I hope you end up enjoying and using them as much as we do in my house!

Have any other products you love and can't live without?  Drop me a comment or email and let me know.  I'd love to try them out!

Happy weekend friends!
