I am a freaking genius if I must say so myself. After I had my hysterectomy I wondered what to do with all my leftover Always overnight pads with wings. A little light bulb went off in my head while I was mopping one day. WHAT IF I STUCK THAT TO THE BOTTOM OF MY SWIFFER WET JET AND MOPPED WITH THAT? So I decided to try it. Guess what? It worked perfectly!! If you think about it, that's all the Swiffer pads are. A giant maxi pad. Actually, I think it worked a little bit better. They were super absorbent and all the wet and dirt was trapped in the dri weave instead of on top getting pushed around. So there you have it. I am thinking outside the box, being resourceful, and saving all this money since I already had them. And when I run out, it's cheaper to buy those than what I was using. Feel free to copy my idea. You're welcome!
