Got a Clogged Sink well....Just Zip-It

I just have to tell you about this handy-dandy tool I got at Lowe's. One of the Ashland master bathroom sinks had a little clog which was driving me crazy. I had been intending to get out the tools and crawl under the sink to unleash the nasty little build up of hair etc. My husband saw this little tool advertised in Lowe's flyer for unclogging drains. The cost was less than $3.00 so I thought I would give it a try before I went through all the other trouble. The package says good for only one use so I purchased two of them (one to take to Bandon of course.) I really didn't have much faith going into this but I put the bendable tool down the drain and when I pulled it out- out came all kinds of hair and stuff (yuck and I haven't even had breakfast yet this morning) - well folks the drain is clear! I did put the tool down the drain several time and it didn't seem to effect the tool that much. Instead of throwing the Zip-It away I'm going to save it for another clogged drain. The tool is made from a bendable plastic and the little teeth which alternative on either side of the long strip will wear down with use. Here is a link for you to take a better look at the product. http://www.preparedness.com/zipitdrcltoi.html

Until Next Time...

Hi Kathleen,
We bought two of those plastic drain cleaners several years ago and we also think they're great. As a matter of fact when our brother Richard came for a visit one time, he bought a few to take home to Pennsylvania. Talk to you later.

Love,
Suzy
