How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Ready To Be #DysonClean ? ~ Giveaway ARV $599

in Lifestyle on 05/15/17

Ugh.  Does this sound familiar?  You’re expecting company in a an hour and the house is a disaster.  What you need to do is a quick “shuffle’.  Tidy the kitchen, wipe up the bathroom counters and give the floors a quick once over.  You run around, grabbing stray magazines and homework off the floor, get those dishes put away, finally get to the vacuum and FAILURE.  Why is the vacuum not SUCKING THIS TIME!  Every time with this vacuum it’s something different!  The bags full, the spinny thing won’t spin, it just won’t suck!  Why can’t I just plug in my vacuum and know it will work.

Enter the Dyson Big Ball Animal 2 into my life.

Every time I plug it in I know it will work!  Dog (or people) hair doesn’t slow it down.

It moves seamlessly from hardwood to rugs, and if the container that holds all that dirt fills up, I just press one button and empty it.  Easy Peasy.

Have you been a victim of vacuum frustration?  I want you to tell me all about it!  Take a moment to leave me a comment telling me your current frustration with your current vacuum and you could WIN your very own Dyson Ball Animal 2!

 

Yes you read that right!  This is your chance to WIN a Dyson Big Ball Animal 2.  ARV $599.99

      Our current vacuum sucks because it doesn’t suck!

      My biggest problem is that our vacuum is losing its suction power since we have a dog and I vacuum twice a week to suck up all his fur.

      My current vacuum currently is broken and I am hand picking the crumbs off the floor!!! This would be great to get I’ve been saving for a dyson as I hear they are amazing! Plus would be better to use a dyson then hand picking crumbs haha with two little boys you can only imagine the crumbs that we have!!

      My biggest vacuum frustration is not with the equipment but the part-time operator – me — I can never remember quickly (like when company is enroute NOW) where I put the vacuum bags (old style machine)…never ever use those machines without a bag !!! If you do you will never do it again! 😉 Thanks for the contest!

      Mine doesn’t pick up cat hair. It just pushes it into the carpet. I have 2 white Persians and it’s like living in a snow globe lol

      Our current vacuum is so loud that it scares the dogs, and us too, really.

      my current vacuum is over 10 years old and was a cheap “temporary” vacuum when we got our home. It barely sucks, so it really sucks and it’s time to get a real vacuum that can get up all our pets fur!

      Have pets so I wear out the vacuum. Hate spending the money to replace it all the time.

      My current vaccuum does not have enough suction; I always have to go back and forth on the same spot to pick up the simplest things.

    14. Tracey says

      May 16, 2017 at 8:31 pm

      My biggest frustration with my vacuum is the motor keeps burning out when it’s suction gets clogged.

    15. Kim Tanti says

      May 16, 2017 at 8:30 pm

      My current vacuum is so weak I have to keep going over the same spot over and over again.

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
