Lukamoo Cat Litter Mats I usually avoid Amazon these days. Though convenient, it's become an absolute playground for scammers. We were given an Amazon gift card recently, so I was required to spend it. The last litter mat we had was from the dollar store, never really functioned well, and was totally destroyed months ago....

Tanit Dishwaser Detergent Tablets I was interested to see that Tanit had branched out from their beauty line to include household products as well. I liked that these tabs come in biodegradable bags, but they're still quite pricey for what they are. I usually buy the Envirowise tablets, which are 80 for $18 compared to... Continue Reading →

Tony goes through underwear almost as fast as he goes through socks. If he likes them, he might as well have lots of them. If he doesn't, he'll still... Continue Reading →
