Cleaning & Laundry - August 2006

Is there a good disinfactant I can put in my bins to make them smell sweet? I wash out tins, cartons etc., and wrap rubbish in doubled plastic bags, but I would like my bing to smell nice.. I have tried Jeyes Fluid, but it doesnt smell nice, and Zoflora, but thats a bit too dear to slosh into bins. My bins dont stink! and I want to keep it that way; I would hate the job of emptying them, so would like to make it nicer for those who do.

I need some help - my clothes dryer is running fine, but for some reason it's not blowing out hot air. The air is cool and it doesn't seem to be getting my clothes very dry. The lint filter is clean. Can anyone tell me what might be causing this? Only serious answers please!

My husband smokes, I have three dogs, 2 kids(boys!), and one of them still wets the bed! I love my family, but I wish I didn't have to smell them all the time! I try to keep the house up, but theres just always that smell...very "lived in"! Anyone have any great tips on sneaky ways to freshen things up?

I just bought one today. The sales guy happened to be at my local grocery store parking lot eating in his car while I was loading my car with the rug doctor I just rented to clean my carpet today and that's when he approached me. He was a bit pushy about cleaning my carpet "for free". Obviously there was a catch but he managed to convince me. After seeing the demonstration of all the dirt that's being left behind, I gave in. The price that they originally said was $1700 but he ended up selling it to me for $1000 plus 2 years worth of bags and shampoo.

I've NEVER heard of this company or the reputation of the sales people before today. I bought the vacuum and then went online to research what I bought. hehe, bad choice. After reading some reviews, I don't feel so good about the purchase anymore.

Obviously it's alot of money for a vacuum. For anyone who has experience with these vacuums, what are your thoughts and opinions? Please help!! I have 3 days to return it if i want.

Ok, I've put Shout on it, washed it, and it accidentally made it into the dryer without my making sure the stain was removed...it wasn't. I've put some more Shout on it, and am letting it soak...but am afraid that's not going to work. It's a new school shirt, and I don't want to lose it already. It's only been worn twice...any suggestions?

I just got a new shop vac from Walmart for 48 bucks, I use it at home at it works great!
Why do people prefer paying more for vacuum cleaners, when they can use this great one for a fraction of the cost?
Just curious...

The insides are cloudy with caked on grime. We don't want to ruin the lettering on the bottles. I thought a dishwasher might be the best way, but I don't have one.

At the end of the day, I like to vacumn my family's great room. We have 17 month old twins, so it gets a little crumby in there. My husband told me this wears out the carpet faster? I dont go over it for very long...just a quick vacumn every night. Thanks.
