Cleaning sponges that clean effectively and cost less

MR CLEAN MAGIC ERASER CLEANING PADS! I cannot believe I have found something that does most every cleaning job I have ever had without chemicals and without a mess. The uses are endless. The cost is minimal. The results are impressive!

I first discovered these miracle erasers several years ago when they were first introduced. Wanting to complete my cleaning tasks with as few chemicals as possible, I searched the cleaning products at the local grocery store and found the Mr Clean Magic Eraser Cleaning Pads. I remember them to be sold in a single pack but now I purchase them in a two-pack and pay roughly $1.50 per pack. What a steal!

Did you ever have kids write all over your walls with crayons? Did you ever spill something on your kitchen or bathroom counter that did not get wiped off before you could get back to it? How about ink pens that slipped off the paper and wrote on the table or counter? Soap scum, grease and grime in sinks, plastic waste baskets, fingerprints on door frames, scuff marks on the kitchen floor...You name it, this little eraser will probably do the trick. It really does seem "magic"!

My oldest son, when he was about three, decided to jump up and down on his bed with four different colored crayons in his hands. Well, it wouldn't have done any harm if he wasn't putting the crayons on the wall! He was so proud of his masterpiece that I could hardly get mad at him. But this was the first overwhelming cleaning project that prompted me to go in search of something to clean it. Having young children in the house, I was conscious of the harm chemicals can do. I wanted something to do the job right and to keep my family safe. ENTER: Mr Clean Magic Eraser!

These erasers measure approximately 6" x 4" and are about half an inch thick. They are soft to the touch and have a firm sponge feeling; less porous than a regular sponge. They are white in color. I believe you can purchase them in single packages for about one dollar.

My experience with this first use was to apply gentle pressure and to wipe in a circular motion over the crayon. I dampened the eraser first and squeezed out any excess water. This is how I use these Magic Erasers all the time. Light moisture, light pressure and circular motions. Needless to say, the work of art was painlessly removed and I was completely sold on this magical product. Without going into detail, my son never colored on the walls again.

Well, since the Mr Clean Magic Eraser did such a wonderful job on the crayon,
