More barf to clean?

Last night I got sick, in the middle of the night. I hate barfing... I'm sorry to be so blunt...but there's really no pretty way to put it. So,now I had my own stinky mess to clean up. I pulled out the Oxi-Clean and gave my stains a good scrubbing. Boy, were those some stubborn stains. I couldn't get the carpet clean with just a little scrubbing so I slopped some Oxi-Clean and water on the stain and let it soak for about 20 minutes. I did some more scrubbing and found that I had to give the stains another soak. It took another 30 minutes or so, but the stains finally came out. Thank you Oxi-Clean.

More clean carpets, thanks to Oxi-Clean

I just received a call from my daughter.
Wow, was she ever excited.

Her dog had an upset stomach for the last two days and while unattended, in the house, the dog left 5 large piles of barf on the living room carpet.

Obviously..not the excited part.

She called me and said that after she had cleaned the barf from the floor, yellow stains and stinky carpet were still 'in her face'.

Still... not the excited part.

I reminded her about how I was able to get those carpets so very sparkly before with Oxi-Clean.

She said that she would give it a try.

This is where the excitement begins...

"Why haven't I ever used this stuff before!?"
she exclaimed over the phone.

Right away I bee-line to her house.

"Wow!" is all I could say.

Thank you for making my carpet clean

Ok..well they weren't exactly my carpets, they were my daughter's carpets. But I'm the Cinderella in the story.
Before my daughter could move back into her house after a medical stay in Denver, her house needed to be cleaned.

We have a saying at our house, and it goes something like this, "Your Mom will get that".

So I went over to discover a terrible mess of urine and dirt tracked everywhere...some of it was from the dog and some of it was from her husband.

This job was too big for plain old steam cleaner solutions.

So I decided to add a little bit of Oxi-Clean to every other refill on the steam cleaner.

It did occur to me that it might not be good for the steamer which I own, it wasn't a rental; for a powder to be going through it instead of a liquid...but I wanted those carpets clean.

And WOW is all I could say when I was done.
Those carpets haven't been that clean for two years.
Thank you Oxi-Clean...you saved the day, again.

After the carpets began to sparkle, I couldn't stop myself...next thing I know, I'm washing the windows and scrubbing the walls from ceiling to floor. Cleaning the baseboards and the switch covers, too.
Dusting everything in sight.
The washer and dryer got moved out and I scrubbed the floor under those.
I took all the curtains down, laundered and rehung them.
Washed the bedding and remade all the beds.
Scrubbed the bathroom and replaced the slimy shower curtain liner.


When my daughter arrived back home, jiggety, jig...the first word out of her mouth was ..WOW!

Now my whites are white

Thank you Oxi-clean.
Never knew how white my whites could be until I started using a scoop of Oxi-clean in every load.
And now I'm as happy as can be.

Thank you for fixing my stink

Thank you Oxi-Clean.
You fixed my stinky problem.
After vacuuming a couple of very stinky and dirty homes, my vacuum was intolerable.
I changed one filter...nothing.
I washed the filter tube and large filter with Dawn...nothing.
I cleaned out the hose pickup...nothing.
I put a couple of fabric softeners in the filter tube....nothing.
And then...I thought of my Oxi-clean.
I dusted the large filter, inside and out, with a generous amount of Oxi-clean.
I let it set overnight.
The next time I used my vacuum....it was the cat's meow.
No more stinky, stink.
Just the beautiful, clean smell of Oxi-clean.
Thank you Oxi-clean.
