Tersano Lotus LSR100 Home Sanitizing System Giveaway

Take a step towards healthier living and live Chemical Free with the Lotus LSR100 Sanitizing System



The less chemicals I use in my home the better I am able to breathe due to asthma. Tersano was gracious enough to send me the Lotus LSR100 to try in my home.

The amazing Lotus LSR100 Sanitizing System from Tersano lets you turn on your faucet and treat your home to an effective sanitizer that safely wipes out germs, odors, stains, mold, mildew and pesticides -- all without chemicals.

The first thing I sanitized was my kitchen. I started at the top with my cabinets. I was wondering how many germs were lingering on my cabinet door handles. ewwwww! And I worked my way down to the countertops, stove, sink, refrig and dishwasher. My stove has never looked better and I've bought expensive pastes to clean the glass top before!

It took greasy grime off two crocks on my counter, one is used to hold my spatulas and spoons, the other holds cooking grease. I have ran these two crocks through the dishwasher many times before and they didn't come this clean!

I also sanitized all my cutting boards, my hubby's two coffee mugs that he won't let me run through the dishwasher (do you know how many germs an unwashed coffee mug harbors? double ewww!)my dishrag & sponge and our toothbrushes! I even sprayed door knobs all around the house before moving to the bathrooms!

All the fixtures in the bathrooms sparkled after their treatment and then I sprayed the floor and used my swiffer with a microfiber cloth to mop. The floor looked wonderful and the whole bathroom smelled so fresh!

The Lotus LSR100 eliminates germs and pesticides from your food also. It even extends the shelf life of fruit and produce. My lettuce has lasted a lot longer so far. With all the salmonella recalls on spinach and lettuce, in the last year (not to mention the peanut butter and eggs) it gives me peace of mind knowing I'm serving my family produce that is safe. I dumped the water from the bowl on my potted flowers. A friend of mine says her plants love the extra super charged water!

I found the system very easy to use and the bottle easy to operate as far as how the trigger fit my hand and the amount of pressure to squeeze the trigger. Having arthritis in my hands makes it difficult at times to use certain spray bottles that are hard to squeeze.

I love the money saving idea of turning ordinary tap water into the world's most powerful sanitizer in about two minutes, for a fraction of a penny. Studies have shown that ozone is 50-percent more powerful and more than 3,000 times faster acting on bacteria than chlorine -- at 100 times the strength. Water treated with this system will kill 99.9 percent of germs on any surface it contacts.

Here are just a few more of the many uses for the Lotus Home Cleaning System:

- Remove Stains on Carpets, Upholstery and Fabric

- Sanitizes & cleans all kitchen counters including granite , Stainless Steel Appliances

- Kills mold & mildew

- Sanitize & deodorize trash cans and lids

- Sanitize & cleans windows & mirrors with no streaking

- Deodorizes & sanitizes pet beds/areas, closet odor, gym bag/shoe odors

- Disinfect toys, Baby Bottles, Pacifiers, Baby’s Highchair, crib mattresses, diaper pails

- Clean Personal Grooming Tools (toothbrushes, combs, brushes)

-Deodorize & sanitize bed mattresses!

- Sanitizes Fruits and Vegetables as well as Meat and Poultry (a friend of mine treats her chicken and pork chops! I've not cooked those yet, but I will be trying it also!)

The Lotus Sanitizing System was recognized as one of the Best Inventions of 2006 by Time Magazine. It was tested by the Rachael Ray Human Lab team. Click on the Racheal Ray link above and watch the video for proof of it's sanitizing capabilities!

The system is:
FDA and USDA approved for food sanitation
UL and CSA tested and approved
EPA registered for produce and household surfaces
Non-abrasive; safe for use on non-porous surfaces
Kills 99.9-percent of:
E. Coli
Salmonella
Staphylococcus aureus (Listeria)
K. Pneumonia

Walgreens Now Has A Coupon Policy In Writing!



Finally, Walgreens has their coupon policy in writing and on their website. You may view the full version here: WALGREENS COUPON POLICY

These two will clear up a lot of debate:

~When items are featured in a Buy a Buy One, Get One Free promotion, up to two coupons can be used against the items being purchased, as long as the net price does not go below zero for the items being purchased. (This means, you can use two coupons on these deals, even another B1G1 Free coupon with the B1G1 Free promotion to get both for free – the value will not be less than $0.00).

~Walgreens accepts valid internet/print at home coupons

So go over to Walgreens and print the policy off to keep in your coupon binder. Keep in mind these policies are new for a lot of the cashiers/managers, it will take them a while to learn like it did when you first started shopping with coupons.

Thanks Penny Pinchin' Mom for the heads up!

The Beauty of Peppers

Look at all those beautiful colors.



Growing peppers is my favorite thing to grow next to tomatoes. At the begininng of the season they are all green, as the season ages, so does the peppers' color.

It really upsets me when I have a bad year for peppers like year before last and the year before that. We use a lot of peppers when cooking in the fall and winter. I'm so happy they did so well this year.



To preserve my peppers I wash them, lay them out on a towel on the counter so they can air dry. Then I bag them in ziplock freezer bags. They are easy to pull from the bag in the quantity we need.

Is anyone else's garden still giving? I'm thinking about planting some fall crops. Are any of you going to be planting anything soon?
