Bargain Find: Reusable Microfiber Cloth

Well this is a silly post, but I couldn’t help myself. Sometimes you find a item in the bargain bin that seems too good to be true.

With concrete floors throughout the house, I like using my Swiffer to dust between sweepings, but I hate the waste and cost of the disposable Swiffer cloths.

I have seen a few patterns online to make your own reusable cloth, but I have to admit I am lazy and don’t see myself spending the time to make one.

I have also tried other products, but they don’t fit quite right on the Swiffer. (I know -crazy- since they were made for others mops!)

So guess how excited I was to find a pack of two microfiber cloths in the dollar bin at my local Target.

They fit perfectly over the mop and for $0.50 each I was able to get a bunch for the price of one Swiffer mop pad pack.

Woo hoo! Major score.

A Steal of a Deal

I am so excited. I scored four Smith & Hawken Marlton 2009 Wood Dining Chairs at Target for $100.00.

After our first real get together at our house it was apparent we needed to get more chairs! So I have been on the lookout for some good deals.

My mom saved the day. She had found out that her local Target had these great chairs on clearance. They had been marked down to $25 from $100. She told me to go check them out fast before they were gone.

After looking them up online to make sure there wasn’t something horribly wrong with them, I went over to the Target and bought four chairs.

It took me a couple hours to put them together, but I had no major problems. I think they will look great on our back porch.
