Hi,
has anyone used the lavender scented vacuum bags with any success ?

I bought one yday to try out,if they are any good will go back and get more for our holidays in a few weeks

Rachie - am I missing something - why would you buy scented vacumn bags just to take on holiday. Do you know something about your holiday place :eek:. (scuttles away as now feeling inadequate over my holiday packing )

My thoughts too! I used to know someone who took their marigolds and bathcleaner with them on holiday:rotfl:

are they vacuum bags to go inside vacuum cleaners or are they bags that you suck the air out of with a vacuum to save space?

If rachie wants to take them on holiday i'm guessing it's the latter

Telford HB had some good water butts (ward) for £13.99, no 'shelf' to match though. Not the slimline ones

One problem with the lavender scented vacuum bags - made me giggle!- will they have a vacuum at your holiday placed to resuck the bag to go home? Just taxed my barely scrapped physics A level brain with the thought of lavender scent in a vacuum, umm, scratches head.

I bought six of these a couple of weeks ago and they are brilliant for 59p each, since I filled them they haven't moved yet so I went today for some more and they were sold out.
I would say they are not quite as thick as some of the dearer ones and I was hesitant at firstm but they have done the job for me.:wave:

I take Marigolds, scrubbing sponges, cloths and Flash on holiday. You just don't know who's bum has sat on the loo before yours and no matter how nice the place and how thorough the maid there is always a crinkly hair in the bathroom somewhere. First job is cleaning the bathroom then it's putting in my own toilet roll. Then we can relax and have a holiday :T.

Yes I know I am weird and I wish I was this manic about cleaning my house.
