Slight zoflora addiction

Hi, I was on the last zoflora thread but can't seem to find it.

I've been shopping tonight ( Asda ) and bought a couple more bottles of winter morning as I do when I see them.
Came home, goes to cleaning cupboard and there is no room for said bottles, I have around 25 bottles of bloody Zoflo Blush

I need to restrain myself from buying and then get my arse in gear, have a massive winter clean and get rid of some of it.
Anyone else still loving theirs?

Would be interested to see how different people use it, I tend to put mine in mop bucket, use on sink and worktops and my favourite is skirting boards.
Oh and I was diagnosed with OCD last week, makes a lot of sense!!

Just opened an Orange and Cranberry - I really like this one. Grin

Springtime is great left in a washing up bowl full of hot water to remove boiled egg smells first thing in the morning. 😆

This is the original thread.

I have found Sweet Pea online!
Adds to collection

TheLionQueen · 18/01/2017 08:14

Prancer let me know what sweet pea is like pretty please?! I think id really like it! I love sweet peas. Anyone been to Eden project? They have this huge trellis on a lawn full of sweet peas and the smell was divine.
I haven't cleaned for ages Blush neglecting my zoflo!

Off-topic: PrancerForHoney I love your name.

On-topic: I only found massive bluebell in my Wilkos, having been inspired by the old thread. It's ok, but quite floral (duh!), so I've been on the lookout for Linen, and the other day, Iceland provided. Hurray!

I bloody love it. Remembered the tip about putting some in hot water in the sink for a bit to get rid of pongs this afternoon, as electrician was coming round about a dodgy socket, and the kitchen smelt weirdly eggy.

It was not eggy by the time he came.

Thank you Zoflora crew!

TheLionQueen · 20/01/2017 13:52

Curbside I hope you have a fab time! We've been twice now and love it. They invest in it quite regularly and the shop is brilliant for unusual gifts!
I managed to do some cleaning before the 3pm slump yesterday and used the last of my linen
Can only find giant bottles of lavender at the mo which is annoying!

PrancerForHoney · 22/01/2017 13:26

Why thank you 😄 I had Tina Turner one day as an earworm.

Yesterday I used a whole bottle of Springtime washing the yard down to try and mask the cow byre smell. Today I have sloshed Green Valley around the bathroom. It smells wonderful.
I also washed the bath rugs in it.

Twopeapods · 22/01/2017 21:42

Found this thread last week and thought, need to get myself some Zoflo! Was in home bargains and found this! Now made myself up some solution in empty bottles and have a lovely smelling house!

I've been stoically sticking with Linen, but I'm getting tempted by all this talk of Springtime...

TheLionQueen · 25/01/2017 10:54

Good haul two what did you pick?
I've broken out the springtime today- the sun is shining and it just felt right!
Cleaned the washing machine drawer, how does something that's supposed to clean stuff get so grim?!
Will do the bathroom in a bit, feeling a bit queasy after all the movement!

CurbsideProphet · 25/01/2017 19:45

TheLionQueen the grimy washing machine drawer turns my stomach and I'm not pregnant Grin My DPs overuse of fabric softener is to blame here!

TheLionQueen · 25/01/2017 20:32

I'm beginning to think I too am guilty of excessive fabric conditioner!
I think its because I can't line dry the washing yet so I'm over compensating.
It was gross though. The washing machine isn't even that old, where does the slime come from
Booked in with midwife today Shock feeling scary real.
Also had a mad decluttering afternoon and emptied a bin bag full of clothes out of my wardrobe. Gave it a wipe down inside with springtime while I had it out.
Haven't joined a decluttering thread as I'm having definite peaks and troughs at the mo but I'll just ramble to you all if that's OK!

PrancerForHoney · 25/01/2017 20:44

Is it sad that I'm looking forward to Saturday. Hopefully my Sweet Pea will be here. Grin

CurbsideProphet · 25/01/2017 21:20

Rambling here is definitely ok with me! I ramble too Grin Wow must feel real now Smile I'm rather broody (no children yet) but I'm in a new job and it really can't happen yet.
I'm hoping to sell some more clothes on ebay soon. I bought a coat online in the sales with a gift card, but changed my mind about it (not as flattering as I first thought). Deliberating how easy it would be to sell/parcel up? !

Urgh I know what you mean about the washing machine slime. Grim Envy

Prancer not sad at all - I'm looking forward to Saturday so I can go to Wilkos and see what selection of zoflora they have in Grin

PrancerForHoney · 26/01/2017 06:30

Cleaning has never been so much fun 😄😄😄😄😄

TheLionQueen · 26/01/2017 11:14

Prancer I'm looking forward to your sweetpea arriving too so you can review it- what does that make me?!
Curbside on paper, it can't really happen for me yet either, but unusually I have listened to my heart instead of my head and here I am. I must admit I didn't expect it to happen as quickly as it has, but with a bit of focus it will be fine! Feeling very real especially with the weird cramping pains as baby seems to be getting comfortable, and the nausea.
Sounds like you're making good progress- could you do collection only on the coat or put it on FB? Depending how bulky it is it might not be too bad to parcel up though.
I had a shitty experience last time I sold on eBay- buyer reckoned they hadn't received the jumper I posted and of course eBay sided with them and left me out of pocket til the post office cough up.

PrancerForHoney · 27/01/2017 11:48

Someone in the Zoflora facebook group posted this. Anyone seen it? Looks intriguing!

TheLionQueen · 27/01/2017 16:13

Hmm I've never seen that before - suggests it's a pet friendly one? Like the sound of mountain air!
I didn't know there was a Zoflora Facebook page!!

MalcolmTuckersOmniShambles · 27/01/2017 16:15

Hello, everyone! I wonder if it's possible to be addicted to Zoflora without actually having used any yet?! I found the original thread yesterday and read through it all in much excitement, with a short break in the middle to order some Zoflora, a spray bottle and some microfibre cloths from Amazon Blush. I went for Linen and then decided to get some Winter Spice for good measure as so many of you seem to love it!

I'm now hugely overexcited about what I'm going to do when it arrives. I'm definitely going to do the filling up and cleaning of the sink/brushes etc as I do that every morning anyway with boring old Fairy.

In fact, my toddler got hold of some baby wipes this morning and smeared cleaned the glass doors with it. Normally, I'd have been really annoyed, but instead I just thought oh good, now I can use the ZoFlora on it when it arrives!

I'm going to end up with 57 in my cupboard too, aren't I?!!!

PrancerForHoney · 27/01/2017 17:51

57 is a good start. 😂

@MalcolmTuckersOmniShambles

Welcome to the wonderful world of Zoflora. Cleaning will never be a chore again. 😂

Flingmoo · 28/01/2017 15:19

Has anyone else had any kind of allergic reaction to it or noticed a relative having one? Seemed to make my husband sneeze and other minor allergic symptoms. I am wondering if it was just the fragrance. I can't remember if it was the winter spice that did it or the linen.

I love it so much I'm tempted to buy some other fragrances to see if they give him the same reaction... Blush I love the stuff and I'm gutted I can't use it at the moment.
