Recently, I was challenged by my friends at Walmart to see if I could purchase what I needed for a #springinspiration spring cleaning project. What would I theme my project? Organizing the kid’s bedrooms perhaps? Maybe my bathroom needed a good purging (how many half empty shampoo bottles does one family need?) Or maybe it was my windows that needed a good spring cleaning. After considering all my options, I decided I wasn’t going to shop for just one room’s needs. Oh no, this was a spring cleaning full house overhaul. And thus, CLEAN ALL THE THINGS! became my mantra when heading out last week to purchase my spring cleaning products for under $100 total.
What are the basics one needs for a spring cleaning overhaul? Certainly the first thing to cover is cleaning the floors. We have a 7 month old labradoodle who has now given me spring dirt on my floors than I ever could have dreamed of (I’m so lucky!)
I love my Swiffer Steam Boost so I picked up some refills for that along with some Swiffer Dusters refills to dust all the surfaces in my house. I also spotted this Swiffer 360 Duster Extender and knew it would be perfect for cleaning all the dust off our walls and ceiling fans (don’t you just love the commercial with the old couple trying it out for the first time?)
Now that I had my floors and walls covered, it was time to think about other surfaces in the house. Mr.Clean could handle that and these smaller concentrated bottles are perfect – no big jugs of cleaner taking up room under my sink!
And, of course, any spring cleaning in my house is going to involve paper towels! Go big or go home!
Next, I thought about what items I needed to help me organize my home better this spring. My husband made a special request, “More space saver bags!” so I obliged.
I also wanted to grab some baskets for my bathroom closet, and since these were such a great price and fun and decorative, I grabbed three!
And finally, we have a weird problem in our household – the laundry hamper full of clothes goes downstairs to the laundry, yet it never seems to make it’s way upstairs for a few days. So, I decided it would help keep our home cleaner and more organized if we had a second one to rotate! That way, clothes never end up on a pile on the floor.
So here it is, my spring cleaning #springinspiration purchase in its entirety! CLEAN ALL THE THINGS!
All my spring cleaning #springinspiration shopping is complete, for a frugal subtotal of $93.47 plus tax (which took me just over my $100 spending limit, I say that’s a win!)
What would you purchase for your #springinspiration cleaning, if you had a $100 Walmart Gift Card like I did? One of my very lucky readers is going to have that chance!
I want to clean everything
My basement storage room! Somehow everything has just gotten shoved in there and needs to be organized very badly
I want to tackle the closets. All year long stuff gets shoved into the closets, doors closed and out of sight out of mind. And then all that stuff never seems to get cleaned up.
I would have to start in our basement- doing renos and the dust and dirt can use some attention!
This would be great, with 3 little ones would be great for their rooms 🙂
My garage is a disaster! My husband (bless him!) tries to stay on top of it but he works from home and keeps product samples there and it is also where all of his tools are so it inevitably gets awful within a few days (okay…. hours….;) ) This is what I would love to tackle!
Kids room is first on the list!!
I am on disability, so often things take a long time to get done. Then we were rear ended in a car accident in January, and I have been pretty much unable to do much of anything……so I (with help) need to start with the top and make my way all the way through the house!
When spring comes, one of the first things I would need supplies for would be the windows….need to let the sunshine in. So paper towels, window cleaner and a new bucket would be great.
I want to do all rooms , but the playroom is screaming at me first…ugh!
i would buy the swiffer steamboost to start and refills.
my bedroom
we live in a basement,, always cleaning,, already started but my closet really needs help, then to rest. ty
I would do my girls rooms! they are in need of an overhaul! I would buy some nice organizers and cleaning supplies 🙂
I would use it to buy things to organize my laundry room and kitchen. Now with a two year old and newborn those two areas need the most help due to all the new stuff 🙂
The whole place from top to bottom could use a good spring cleaning!!
My master bathroom! Just changed my bedding in bedroom and now need to clean and spruce up the bath! Love that brown clothes hamper, I’d surely but that and a shower curtain to match! And some swiffer cleaning items!

The living room!
I definitely need to clean out the spare room, it has become a storage unit.
I have plans to clean the house from top to bottom this spring. It feels so good to declutter and rearrange furniture before the outdoor season begins in earnest.
I’m like you and would try to tackle all rooms, but with a big emphasis on the living room which doubles as our play room too. The clutter drives me insane sometimes!
I would love to attack my spare room its a mess!

I could do a BIG clean of everything 🙂
I have just totally been bitten by the cleaning bug. I am addicted to cleaning these days. For me, I just can’t pick just one spot. I am like you. 🙂

doing it all myself washed the house down last weekend and going to do my sons room next
first and foremost are the windows, inside & out
Spring cleaning! Yuk! but it would be nice to organize the spare bedroom. Everything just gets pile into there if no one knows where to put it. So we got left over xmas decor. Piles of papers no one has filed yet. Pictures no one has put into albums. Craft stuff etc etc etc Geez thinking about it makes me want to procrastinate even more 😉

I really need to clean my kitchen and dig out my bedroom.

The back entry area of our house needs a complete cleaning. It’s disgusting how much dirt tracks in this time of year.
I would like to clean everything but I really need to deep clean and organize my kids’ rooms
I need to tackle my basement.
I actually love the sound of that – “Spring clean ALL the things!” I have a new problem this spring : with 2 grown children moving out on their own, I now have 2 “empty” bedrooms to spring clean/re-paint/re-purpose. The “empty” part refers to the fact that these 2 rooms not only have left-behinds from the previous occupants, they have also collected odds and ends that have been stashed there – just because! You know how nature abhors a vacuum… 🙂 So my answer to MIss Feisty, Frugal and Fabulous would be a purchase of a folding table for one of the rooms which will become a hobby room for hubs & me to share.
I need to tackle the guest room
i want to clean all the main rooms
I think I would clean up the basement from toys and games. Just give it a good clean.

I want to CLEAN ALL THE THINGS!
I am definitely like you and clean from top to bottom. I do this twice a year,once in the spring and then again at Thanksgiving. The job I hate the most is cleaning the walls and outside of the windows..ugggg. I love the Swiffer 360 Duster Extender as it makes it sooo much easier to get the tops of shelves and my fans.
Basement Recreation room needs a drastic upheaval – the brown carpet – victim of late night coffee spills, toppled over bowls of popcorn kernels and seeds , dog hair from our pet Googles. A nice affordable spring project – tear up the carpet – a family event and replace with a large cumbersome floor area rug. Something drastic and out of the norm – BLAZING/RED/YELLOW/ORANGE…..*spring burst*
My car could use a really good cleaning and once I get started in the house I’ll probably want to do it all!
Oh god my laundry room/craft storage room/hubbies electronics hook up room/ crap room from christmas. It scares me
I really want and need to clean everything – but especially things like under/behind the fridge and stove and other hard to get to areas.
Weeelll, we got evicted yesterday (our landlady foreclosed on the property) so I’ll be cleaning the heck out of my whole apartment of 6 years pretty soon 🙁
I would love to try the Swiffer Steam Mop as my kitchen floor is also my entry and my cat isn’t put off by wet muddy paws. Then an end table to even out the bedroom and provide more surface and storage and I’d be good.
I need to clean and organize my spare bedroom. It has turned into a giant dumping closet. Baskets of clothes on the bed, desk covered with nail polish and junk. I get tired just thinking about it…
My plan for Spring cleaning is to paint my son’s room and give it a refresh.
