Well, it's that time of year again when your blood pressure rises: it's holiday time! The cause of your stress is the extraordinary pressure you put on yourself to find the 'perfect gift' for everyone on your shopping list. Over the years, you have spent hundreds and hundreds of hours fretting over what to get for those special close friends and relatives because it's important to give just the right gift. It is a reflection of who we are. Most of us simply cannot give an ordinary gift because we don't consider ourselves to be ordinary. We want the gifts we give to be cool, hip, and useful. So no more gaudy cuff links, fluffy slippers, or ties your dad and husband never wear. And no more fruitcakes or jaw breaking candy.

So, what to get?

I have a suggestion. Give the friends and family members on your list something that will help solve an annoying problem that virtually everyone who owns a home, condominium or rents an apartment has: a shower stall or bath tub that they can't keep clean! This gift will eliminate that messy shower or tub forever, and believe me, it could be the most appreciated gift you have ever given. Let me explain'

Generally speaking, the least sanitary area in most homes is the shower or bath tub. Unless this area is cleaned after every bath ' and not many of us have the time to do that ' this area can quickly become a haven for mildew and other undesirable elements. As water dries, it traps human skin scales, body oils, hair, soap residue and dirt, forming those infamous, unsightly, and unsanitary water spots on glass shower doors and tile.

There is, however, a quick and easy way to help reduce the accumulationof these materials: a shower squeegee! By wiping the surfaces with a squeegee immediately after showering and before the water has a chance to dry, you will preserve your clean bath or shower. And believe it or not, the procedure takes just seconds. So find an attractive bath squeegee to give to your friends and family this holiday season. They are sure to appreciate it, and they won't forget who gave them this unique and practical gift!
