Saving Craving! Savings tip: Mop less often

Today's tip is hilarious for me. I was watching the Nate Berkus show the other day (love him!) and Jamie Lee Curtis was on there. Apparently she's an OCD neat freak, and was giving cleaning tips.

One tip she gave was so simple and great! She said she rarely mops, which surprised me. Her tip was this: after a party when she's cleaning up, or when she's picking up, cooking, or doing dishes, she simply walks around with wet towels beneath her feet. She "ice skates" across her floors, and next thing you know, the high-traffic areas are clean! You can do a quick once over the whole floor, but then your highly used areas get a good scrub with the weight of your body. Clever, huh??

I decided to post this as a tip, and googed "no mop" so I could insert a photo. Then these babies showed up:
Who knew these even exhisted?!?! Yowsa! So there you go. If you don't want to glide around on towels, simply strap these babies on and clean your floors like a pro! This not only saves you time (which saves money), but also cuts down on your need for buying expensive mop refills.

Happy savings...and sliding...to you!
