Make Me Over, Renuzit!
By Marisa | April 2, 2008
Have I got a treat for all of you!
As you know, my husband has just left for Hawaii. He’ll be gone until at least June. While I’m already missing him, I am most certainly not missing the smell of cigarettes in my house. Since I quit smoking more than two years ago, I’ve become very aware of the awful odor of cigarettes. Which is why I’m always trying to find ways to eliminate or even mask that awful smell.
Since I’ve always like Renuzit products (especially their odor neutralizer that worked wonders when I was house training Belle) I was very interested in their new product, Tri Scents. I noticed that not only are they offering a very generous store coupon to try their new TriScents, but Renuzit is also offering a $20,000 home makeover!
My house isn’t that old but we did build it ourselves, while living in our garage for eight months. That means that we had to skimp on some stuff here and there and after 15 years, that skimping shows. I’m all set to enter to win a makeover for my kitchen.
You can see from these pictures (Click them to open and make them bigger) that my kitchen looked pretty nice, though plain, 15 years ago. You can also see that the floor is a basic linoleum, that we had every intention of replacing with ceramic tile in a few years. Hasn’t happened. What has happened is that the bar stools that we bought about 10 years ago have ripped holes in the linoleum. My floors look just awful! 
The one thing I wouldn’t skimp on was the countertop. I had to have that dark dark gray counter. And part of it had to be specially cut. That was a mistake. I have 5 sons and sons tend to be hard on pretty things. There are more nicks and cuts and burn spots on my counter than I ever imagined possible. It just breaks my heart.
I really want my kitchen redone, or at least my floors and counters. I’ve read the official rules and I’m ready to enter. I dont’ really want a lot of competition but I like all of you so I’ll share this with you anyway. Head on over to the TriScents site and decide which room in your house you’d like made over. Then enter to win the $20,000 prize! I won’t get mad if you win instead of me, but I do expect you to share the pictures with me, so I can enjoy your good fortune, too.
