We are due to test another mystery game party here soon. We've had several people express interest, and others who have participated in our mystery parties who have asked to play again.
That means we must prepare a place to hold a party: our home.
My husband, the sweet man that he is, decided to surprise me with a dishwasher and new counters over Memorial Day weekend. Of course, it rained the entire weekend. Of course.
When all was said and done, my carpets were completely trashed. Luckily, I'd ordered some new carpet stain remover (Greenwald carpet and stain remover) which is a necessity with cream carpets and four kids. It came in the mail over the weekend and I got to work on my carpets couple of days ago. All I can say was WOW. I've done nearly everything to keep my carpets clean.
Professional cleaner: back to dingy within a couple of weeks.
Iron & Amonia: How I didn't die I'll never know.
Purchased a Steam Cleaner: Meh.
And several other types of cleaners: scrub, scrub, scrub, scrub, SCRUB. Result: iffy.
Greenwald's was pretty stinking awesome. I was taking out strawberry stains that my 4 year-old had smashed into the carpet, the mud and dirt on the stairs from working over the weekend, and even a stain from a chocolate protein shake the very same 4-year-old dumped in the middle of the living room when I wasn't looking.
The only thing I had issue with was the spray bottle, which the sprayer kept coming off the bottle mid-spray. But that's a 1.00 fix at the local dollar store. You're paying for the cleaner and that stuff was top notch. Even my husband commented on how well it worked.
So tomorrow, I've got a date with my stairs to finish what I started. Who knew I'd be so excited to be on my hands and knees scrubbing!
It is, after all, time to have another party!
