BISSELL Stain Eraser, erasing the stains of Christmas

BISSELL Stain Eraser, erasing the stains of Christmas

The joys of living with three children mean that I am never far from a new spillage, spot or stain appearing somewhere around the house.  I love my children dearly, but sometimes I’m sure that they just love to see me scrubbing the carpet where their juice cup slipped from their grasp.  Or the no shoes on the carpet rule was flouted yet again (always when they have muddy shoes on!).  Add into this mix the run up to Christmas with friends and family joining us to celebrate.  More food and drinks consumed around the house and it wouldn’t be Christmas without a square or two of Chocolate for breakfast. … View Post
