Here is our latest idea. Now I know we didn't think of this but it works out so great we thought it would be fun to share.
The other day I was taking my boots off after being outside in the dirt and grass when I just needed to run inside for a bit and back out. I thought "there has to be a better way to do this if I just want to run inside for a few minutes?" You know, to get water or something to eat or the inevitable item I left inside that I need.
Then it hit me!
These! I figured, this would work perfectly for going in and out for quick things.
I ordered them, got them and have already put them to good use.
Here are my boots for example, as I was ready to come inside for a few minutes. Some dried mud and grass on there that I don't need to be tracking through the house. I pulled out a pair of the shoe covers...
...and put them on. Aside from the pointy toe shoe vibes (ha!), they are perfect. I was able to roam around the house without worrying at all. Then when I went back outside, I just slipped them off and put them back in a drawer in the garage to use a few more times. If they had been wet and/or muddy, of course I would just throw them away.
I ordered them HERE ON AMAZON. 100 pair for $9.99. That's only 10 cents per pair. Seems like a no brainer for clean floors! 2nd Man is happy that I am not tracking stuff on the clean floors and so that makes me happy. It's a win/win for sure!
They are so handy to have around, especially if you have a service person to do a minor job inside the house. I have been using these handy dandy shoe slip-on covers
ReplyDeletefor a few years now. I keep a couple pair in the truck..........just in case. Hubby also has small package that he keeps in his workshop.
Enjoy your day and have a wonderful weekend
Also great when you're doing some painting of the house walls, etc.
DeleteThat is such a smart idea!
ReplyDeleteI've noticed the electrician when he's been here does the same thing. Oh, and plumber too. Very thoughful.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! Do they come with an accompanying training video for, ahem, somebody at my house?!
