I liked the Magic Eraser, but the price is a bit much - especially with how quickly I wear them out!

Baking soda FTW! (for the win!)

I use baking soda all the time and I must admit the few times I have tried the magic eraser I have been sorely disappointed. I am a baking soda addict all the way! LOL

I use the ME in my shower. We have really hard water and a bad issue with soapscum that I don't ever seem to beat. I keep a ME in the shower and use it a few minutes everyday before my shower. I do use baking soda on my walls though. We have 3 mastiffs so the bottom half of all my walls are constantly covered in slobber and dust!

I will try ME. What's the cheaper brand at $ store and does it work as well? I don't mind paying a higher price if it works.
I have a build up of water marks on my shower door. We just moved here and the house is only 2 years old but I don't think the previous owner used anything to remove the water marks. I always used a squeegie on the door after each shower to remove the water.

Keep life simple, to Simply live. Life is too short to worry about it.

I don't know the name at the Dollar store, but it is like Magic Erase...they are slick in their naming!! HA!!! I love mine because anytime I have had some weird stain or mark, they work fantastic.

I buy the orginal Magic Easrers at my dollar general. They come 2 in a box, sometimes they will have them 4 in a box. Costs me 2.00 and I think they are worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They cna get the grease and grime off everything I have tried them on, from ALL my kitchen appliances and chest freezer to the little tykes toys I used to get at yards sales for my son when he was little. They clean painted walls and I haven't had any of the paint wear off. I used them til they are very grundgy, then toss them.

I like the magic erase but my Baking Soda is my personal friend. Use it every where I need scouring.

I have used both, but won't use the magic eraser again. I saw what it did to a toddler who loved to help mommy clean. He may have been allergic, but he blistered up something awful. The mother said the only thing that made him feel better was a cool bath. If any one wants the pictures, I will look to see if I still have the email.

If it ain't red, leave it in the shed.

We have white kitchen cabinets and appliances. I also have 2 boys. I LOVE ME (that looks funny, I mean Magic Eraser, though I am quite fun).

Blessings!

I love ME!!! I just removed about 1000 scuff marks off the walls at the doctor's office where I clean. They were all over the walls and the ME got them all of. They were impressed. It didn't even take long. I love it here at home for all of the gunk that builds up on the wall around my stove.
