I'm feeling the need...
...to just weigh in on a couple of issues raised in my last post.
Or maybe three issues.
1. Are you all talking about the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Sponge thing? I have had very little success with that product. Are you using it the way I am using my Tide stick thing? (The Magic Eraser of which I speak removes the very expensive high pigment oil paint from my walls.)
2. I was just cleaning the bathroom downstairs. I was spraying some Comet bathroom cleaner stuff on the tub and thinking: hey, this is pretty good stuff...wonder why I bought this...oh! I know why I bought this! I bought this because Jon Armstrong told Heather that it was good stuff and she blogged it.OH MY GOD. OHMYGODOHMYGOD.
3. You do know that that is not what's going on here, don't you?
God knows, the money from the Tide people would never cover my mortgage.

Who is Jon Armstrong and Heather?
we are talking about laundry...
I can't put Bon Ami in the wash -
Someday I'm going to have to learn how to link in comments.
Shipping Magic Erasers AND Pop-Tarts across the pond is what got me on terror watch lists.
It works really well if your house came with doors and cupboards that were painted white by prior moron owners.
I do have to admit it cleans light switch plates just fine, however you an also wipe those off with a rag so not really a plus in my book.
Wow, that comment was a book in itself!
And....I've never used Bon Ami, the Magic Eraser, or Tide to go. Gah!
PJ - I'm not sure if you were kidding or you actually wanted an answer to your question, "Who is Jon Armstrong and Heather?"
Heather Armstrong is a famous blogger and Jon is her husband. You can check her blog out at www.dooce.com
To me, the magic eraser is like very fine sandpaper or something, all it does is scratch the stain off, so I wouldn't want to use it on something valuable.
I prefer baking soda to Comet. I could say it is because I was traumatized by my encounters with Comet as a child, but it is because baking soda is less chemically aggressive and it has the added bonus that if you use it to clean the tub, you don't end up sitting in grit, it dissolves.

I am still in love with the magic eraser. It sometimes leaves streaks on the walls. Which I find preferable to the long crayon line my daughter drew as she walked up the stairs. And the scuff marks on my boy's white leather sneakers? gone.
But I can't imagine using it on clothes...Zout is my go-to stain remover guy.
