Just for fun, what do you think would be fun to give/receive for Christmas? For her: iRobot Roomba Discovery SE Vacuuming Robot Model 4220 For him: WowWee R/C Fly Tech Dragonfly: Green - 49MHz I know you're not supposed to give your spouse cleaning gear for Christmas, but it's also a robot.

It's weird that you posted that, bird. My wife and I have already exchanged gifts. We're terrible at keeping gifts secret. She got me the iRobot Roomba for pets. I got her a Nintendo DS. Since then, I think she's used the Roomba more than I have, and I've used the DS more than she. However, the Roomba really is a cool vacuum, and it gets our carpet WAY cleaner than any vacuum we've ever used. We weren't getting a Dyson until we bought a house, but using this thing continuously throughout the week while we're away is way better than using a Dyson once a week while we're home. The constant vacuuming keeps it cleaner than once a week cleaning. When we got the Roomba, we vacuumed everything with our regular vacuum cleaner, then went back over it with the Roomba. It was amazing how much more that thing picked up than the regular upright. Having a dog, it just makes it that much easier to keep things clean. |
Thanks for the info on the Roomba. We both hate cleaning, and one of us is a pack rat. We need all the help we can get in the cleaning department. Maybe we'll turn it around like ya'll did. I wouldn't mind getting the Roomba as long as I got to fly the copter around the house. Not sure how my bird would like the copter.
