A tale of a Dyson


Brad and I've been thinking about getting a Dyson vacuum ever since they came out. With two dogs, two kids, and a lot of carpeting, we do lots of vacuuming.

However, the cost of one always kept me from going for it. They're pretty pricey. But, lo and behold, Linens 'n Things is offering $50 giftcards with the purchase of a Dyson, plus they emailed me a 20% off coupon. So, that's a great deal. Off we went today to pick one up.

It was works great! We got "the ball" which, instead of having four casters, glides on one big ball. It swivels and manuevers like butta, baby.

But the best reason for getting one so far (and making it so worth the money):

my husband, MY husband, put it together and vacuumed the living room as soon as we got home. Do you guys know Brad? If not, let me tell you, he doesn't clean. He especially doesn't vacuum unless he is first cajoled, bribed, or threatened .

But look at him now! Ah, isn't he cute?

Thats funny you posted this. I've been "researching" Dyson on ebay for a while. I dont have one yet. Our regular vaccum is done. Dead. Over. So I'm a few Cheerios away from buying anything that I can plug-in. Those Dyson's do seem nice. As for Brad cleaning... its no longer "a vaccum" its a POWER TOOL. hee hee.
