    Organic, natural and eco-friendly toothbrushes review

    Did you know that you can get organic toothbrushes? Why are organic toothbrushes and hygienic products so important for our oral hygiene? 

     

    The statistics tell us that the world consumes more than 3.6 billion plastic toothbrushes every year and The Humble Co. which is based in Sweden has found a great alternative and these brushes can be recycled!

     

    We know that toothbrushes are essential for us and for use every single day, they help us keep our teeth clean and that also prevents us from gum diseases. 

     

    But some people don’t brush their teeth for several days or properly and that can lead to a really bad case of gum disease and nobody wants that. A toothbrush is a tool that every dentist will recommend you to use every day and …

    How did the Dyson V11 perform vs the Gtech AirRam?

    They’re both among the best cordless vacuum cleaners you can buy, but they take very different approaches to the business of cleaning. I have used both, one at my own home and one at my mum’s.

    So, how are they different? Let’s start with our Dyson V11:

    Recent Dyson vacs have all sported excellent bin emptying mechanisms and this one’s no exception. The bin itself holds 0.76 litres of dust and debris which may seem small but it’s enough for dusty stair carpet and another big room’s carpet in my house. 

    It comes with lots of handy attachments for the stairs and webs and skirting boards. It also switches from carpet to hard floor seamlessly. To empty its contents, you simply push down a latch and the outer transparent sleeve jolts down, ejecting everything …

    10 tips to cut down on energy usage costs

    With the government’s announcement on the 2 February, every household in the UK is set to be given £200 towards their energy bill, but that frankly won’t be enough, so we need to think smarter about energy.

    Here are 10 tips on ways to contribute a little to keeping energy costs down.

     

    • The cheapest time to put your washing machine on

     

    Your washing machine is one of the most energy-consuming appliances in your household. 

    But you can save money by running them as efficiently as possible.

    There are certain times of day when running your washing machine can be good – energy prices are usually at their lowest between 10 pm and 5 am. You should try it out and see the difference!

    Besides cutting down on that certain time to turn on …

    Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

    Mother’s Day is such a special day, but it is not enough to celebrate motherhood on one day, and frankly, we should make every day as special as this one to shower our love upon our mothers. This day is a great opportunity to spread love and share gifts with our mums. 

    But, it can be a struggle to find that perfect gift, right?

    I wanted to help us all out and post some mothers day gift ideas that are a good bargain and indeed a good fit for every special woman in our lives. Most gifts here come in under £15.

    I do hope that these gift ideas can help you pick out something special for your mum and if you are a mum yourself, happy early Mother’s Day to you!

    Ovenpride vs. Oven cleaner

    Oven cleaning is one of the most dreaded chores when it comes to blitzing the kitchen. 

    Cleaning the oven can seem like a complex task. You can choose to do it by using the single-use all-in-one deep cleaning product Oven Pride product or if it’s a bigger hassle than you thought then perhaps using a professional oven cleaning company is a better choice.

    But how can you decide which would be easier for you? When it comes down to what you get for a better price, well you can get the Oven Pride for £4.00 at Tesco and other grocery and discount stores.

    To get the best results when using Oven Pride to clean your oven, we would recommend leaving the product to work for at least 4 hours.

    If it’s convenient, leaving it overnight …

    No more food waste with Too Good To Go app

    Every year, food goes to waste and that’s one-third of all food produced in the world. The global spending to make worldwide access to food possible reaches billions. By looking at this problem, you could easily assume that there’s a shortage of food. But that’s not the case. The problem is food waste.

    Too Good To Go started in Denmark in 2016. 

    The people behind this app share a strong belief that wasting food is unacceptable and that food is simply too good to go to waste. With this movement, they aim to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste. This app connects consumers with bakeries, restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and other businesses so that their surplus food can be consumed instead of wasted. 

    They are now present in 17 countries, including Switzerland, and the …

    How BookMyGarage saved me over £150 on my car’s service and MOT

    I went for an interim service and MOT last week and ended up saving over £150 by using BookMyGarage. Normally I use my car’s official dealership for work, so that I have all the lovely paperwork and also the software updates I need. The time came to book it in and I didn’t have the phone number so looked online and BookMyGarage appeared.

    I clicked through as it offered to compare prices, so I thought let’s do it. I put in that I wanted an MOT and interim service and I couldn’t believe it. I was quoted £98.48 for my service and £39.00 for my MOT. I know that I can get an MOT for £28 by shopping around, but my dealership charges over £50 normally. I was a bit suspicious, so I called my …
