Jessica, 5m4m contributor is here to share with us about SpongeTowels and an amazing contest as well as an ultimate giveaway gift basket. We were compensated to write this review and given a gift basket to give away, however all opinions remain our own.
If your kids are anything like mine (and I’m guessing they are), messes are a part of your life. Just when you think you have the kitchen clean, a little hand leaves a dirty print on the front of the refrigerator. It’s a never ending battle to keep the messes at out of the kitchen.
Harder than keeping those kitchen messes cleaned up are the spills that happen when you are having dinner. Inevitably a glass of milk, juice or worse gets knocked over and you’ve got to think quick to get it cleaned up. Grabbing a paper towel can sometimes cause more harm than good, especially if that paper towel doesn’t clean up the mess well. There’s nothing like carrying a dripping, soggy handful of paper towels across the room as you rush to the garbage can.
SpongeTowels can help alleviate that problem. SpongeTowels have the best combination of absorbency and strength. They feature thousands of super absorbent sponge pockets in each pack. SpongeTowels is the official paper towel of Top Chef Canada.

Cleaning up after a sick kid on carpet

One time I had to clean up human bodily ickiness at my store (The Dollar Tree) A young child decided it would be fun to smear it all over the ground and walls of the bathroom. Definitely a memorable experience.
sick mess off of spongy flooring (children’s museum)
worst messes are cat-related – let’s just say either from the mouth or the back-end…
My little poodle use to get the runs when she was left and well when we left her the first time with our new puppy….yikes! Luckily she has outgrown that!!!
I dropped a bottle of BBQ sauce – it splatted everywhere.
Worse and most disgusting mess was this winter when our new puppy had the “runs” on my kitchen floor….but we kept him anyways 🙂
Thanks for having a contest for us Canadians only…I love Sponge towels!
Vomit the smell alone was enough.
Gave my 9 month old a chocolate pudding, huge mess,,,it was everywhere,but he enjoyed it that’s all that mattered!

My son threw up strawberries and bananas… EVERYWHERE.

Splattered chocolate pudding all over the kitchen.
Projectile puke all over floor & walls.
My boyfriend made a blueberry crisp and then set it on the stove to cool but he set it over the burner that releases the hot air and it blew up. Broken glass and blueberry mess all over the kitchen!
my worst mess was a trail of blood throughout the house, my son was looking for me while his nose was bleeding!!!!
its nasty but true when my children r sick puke!!!!! totally nasty
Has to be vomit, in the carpet, in the cracks of the hardwood floor, in the nooks and crannies of a bed and dresser, and all the while trying not to throw up myself.
Worse mess was after spilling a large pot of tomato sauce.
Worst mess had to be when I hosted a party and had to deal with drunken guest who made a mess of things
The grease catcher in the BBQ leaked all over the inside of the BBQ. what a disaster.
Spilled nailpolish on hardwood floors and all over my comp.
it has to be cat vomit! We went away for the day earlier this week and one of our cats got very angry at us and we walked in to find that she had vomited at least 6 times on our furniture and our carpet! ugh
ice cream with all the fixin’s all over the carpet. Of course I was not told until it had been sitting for quite a while. What a mess and so hard to get clean
My worst messes have been from when my girls have been ill. The worst mess I’ve had in the kitchen was when my youngest girl had a bowl of spaghetti and decided it was better all over her hair and the floor than in her tummy!
Probably when my son got sick all over the carpet
Cooking and spilling much of the meal all over the floor and cupboards.
Worse mess that I ever cleaned up was when my daughter got sick, mess from her room all the way to the bathroom, yuk
This maybe not the worst mess Ive ever cleaned up but it was a very frustrating mess. Yesterday, I just gave my son and my niece a capri sun juice and I left the room for a minute. I came back into the living room and the had both emptied their juices right onto the couch because they thought it would be funny. (totally not funny)
