First, I ventured into the realm of coffee makers and decided to buy a percolator. When we moved into our house in January my coffee pot met it's demise during unpacking. Thankfully, it was cheap and we don't drink coffee. Well now it is 8 months later, fall and winter are coming and I've had a few requests for coffee. In my attempt to be an accommodating host (especially for overnight guests) I started reviewing my options. After ruling out the super cool single cup makers like Keurigs and Boschs I moved on to percolators. I find them retro and funny (long story that I'm not even going to bother to tell). So, I ordered one from Amazon and love it. I've even had about 1/3 of a cup of coffee in the last few days. The coffee is good, it takes up less space than a traditional coffee pot, keeps coffee hot, makes a cool noise, and is all stainless steel (no plastic for those who care).
Second, I got a steam mop. I've been struggling with mopping our kitchen floor with a classic Swiffer. I found myself changing the cleaning pad multiple times in one mopping. Since our floor is white and we have a toddler it needs to be mopped often. So I was going through the cleaning pads like crazy. Yeah, I know it's a 1st world problem (1WP). I stated doing my research and discovered the steam mop. They are AWESOME! You buy it once and the cleaning pads are reusable. The best part was I got it for 40% off plus an additional 30% off with a gift card at Kohl's.
