I love ordering stuff from Lenehans, because they pack stuff like my dad (lots of tape) and also because they shamelessly reuse every bit of cardboard they have on hand for shipping and packaging. Today's package is sponsored by Pattersons Scottish Bakers, best before November 2024.

My order from Lenehans included a Scrub Buddi™️

Scrub Buddi™️ is the latest invention sold via JML to daytime TV viewers. I occasionally fall into that category. It's a handle with a motor and a brush attachment; I have a cosmetic one for my face and this is a rough-bristled household-cleaning equivalent.

And I bought one.

This is how I know I'm not immune to propaganda.

Neither are you.

Keep it away from your eyes and ears.

PS. Scrub Buddi is fine. It's exactly as expected: it's loud, and it's cheap, and does the job adequately.

(Though you should keep it away from your eyes and ears as well.)

@jjcelery This is exactly our experience with their deliveries, too! 😄

@clickhere whenever I get something "wet" from them - cleaning supplies, solvents, paint - each of them is taped up at the bottle or can pening, then wrapped in bubble wrap, then taped, then boxed up and taped, then wrapped in a bin liner and - you guessed it - taped again.

I'm pretty sure their entire packing department is staffed with "dads".

It takes half an hour to unpack all that stuff!
(I'm not complaining)

@jjcelery Haha! Yes, I've been that soldier, spending far too long trying to open that packaging to get to whatever bottle of liquid it is. I love it!
@clickhere I always get my Good Knife when a package from them arrives (it's a wide retractable stanley-style).
@jjcelery Ooh, sounds fancy! Yeah, we invested in a box-cutter type thingy. 😄
@jjcelery I love the variety of stuff that they have and that they’ll put a ladder in the post :) (a folding one, granted)
@james they tried very hard to sell me a ladder this spring indeed! 😂
@jjcelery was it this one on offer at €99 https://www.lenehans.ie/multi-purpose-alum-ladder.html - I needed one to take down what was left of my Mikrotik wireless bridge dish from the hay shed after Éowyn! It’s a very handy ladder
4 Way Multi Purpose Aluminium Ladder

4 Way Multi Purpose Aluminium Ladder Dimensions: Fully extended - 3.6m Step ladder - 1.8m Scaffold - 1m Folded - 1m Weight - 11.3kg

@james looks super handy indeed! Thankfully despite being a shortarse I live in an apartment so a little IKEA ladder does me fine for my needs 😉

But I did get three separate sales / discount emails from Lenehans with ladders in it, which was a source of some entertainment 😂
