I bought a new vacuum and it works great!

We had a 5 year old vacuum cleaner but it didn't clean very well. On new years day, my husband tried to fix it and totally broke it. We needed a new one. I always wanted a Dyson vacuum cleaner but thats way beyond our budget (usually over $400.) On one Sunday at Macy's, we saw a Bissell vacuum and my husband says this is the same vacuum as the one he  sometimes uses at work and it works great and easy to toss the dust and clean the filter. I thought it does looks similar to Dyson. I wanted a small canister style but if vacuum works great, why not? The price was $109.

On the Friday morning, I was browsing newspaper (we only subscribe Thurs to Sun) I saw a Macy's morning sale ad and the sale was between 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Fri and Sat only. I had a cold and I totally lost my voice on that day, but I determined to get one and I did with my 18 month girl! The vacuum was heavy and my girl was being good girl. I could park nice spot. I don't think I could park this good spot on the Saturday. I got the vacuum with tax, $98.00 I am so glad that I saved $20 from one week ago.

I didn't use it until my husband got home because I was kind of feeling ill, but I couldn't believe how much dust this vacuum got after just one time use. The dust filled up almost half of the dust container! Ewww. We were living among the dust? No wonder my asthma was bad!

In Feng Shui, it is very important to clean your house. I hope my luck will be better this year.
