    Great idea! :D

    On second thoughts, I'm sure I've read somewhere that bleach could damage them, so I'll have to look into that.

    Yes, says on packaging on the Savers ones not to use with bleach.

    DS had a bath today so i cleaned the bathroom while he was in the bath i used a microfibre cloth and stardrops.

    It shines. I ended up cleaning the doors and the skirting boards too.

    Hi,

    I've not used these before. What cleaning product do you use with them?

    Thanks so much to recovering spendaholic for starting this thread. I didn't know about these but have bought several this week after reading about them here.
    So far I've used them to clean the bathroom - including the tiles, damp dust the whole house, clean the windows inside & out & clean my 2 cream leather reclining chairs. I used no cleaning products at all, just warm water & one damp & one dry cloth.
    Everything has come up lovely & sparkly & it's all been much quicker & easier than anything else I've tried. I like to be environmentally friendly wherever I can & these are perfect, the best idea I've had from this board so far - & that's saying something! :T

    I bought three Tesco's ecomony ones for, 89p I think and they are excellent. I only bough them after reading about them on here.

    I've made one a duster and dusted the living room without polish and I really can't beleive how easy, effective and quick it was. I think I'll use this tin of polish and that will be it.

    Then we've got a proper wooden floor in the hall way and pine doors, I used a drop of the Astonish floor cleaner in a bowl of water and cleaned the floor, doors upstairs, skirting boards and skirting down the stairs and I really can't recommend them enough.

    These also been a nasty look bit around the sink in the kitchen. Its gone now with just hot water and these clothes.

    Please help me! I am feeling the thickest of the thick now!

    I couldn't find microfibre cloths in...Tescos, Wilkinsons or Savers yesterday and I want some!!!

    Please, please, could someone put me out of my misery and describe where they are found in the shop (I've been looking where the dishcloths and dusters are) and what type of packaging are they in. Does it say Microfibre cloth on it? I saw some brightly coloured multi-packs in Wilko's but they just said 'super absorbent'.

    Help please!! My stardrops are willing and ready, but I want some microfibre cloths!

    Well I bought mine from Tesco's in the section where you get duster/dishcloths from.

    It deffently says microfibre, not the one's you mention. Mine where in the normal style tesco's economy packet.

    I will say they were in a corner.

    I disappeared off to a different Tesco's and finally found them! Along with 4 chickens for the freezer as they're on BOGOF!

    They work great, but they feel wierd, almost like they are sticking to your hands.
