Cleaning tile grout has to be one of the most difficult tasks when it comes to cleaning your home. This is because wiping down tiled surfaces is often not enough to remove tough stains or grime. With so many people coming in and out of your home, it is nearly impossible to keep the grout on your tile floors clean. You can clean your grout with cleaners and elbow grease, but this is not always enough to restore it to like-new condition.
Fortunately, one Aldi shopper revealed that Aldi’s $1.95 cleaning item DiSan, known for its stain removal powers on clothes, is also extremely effective when cleaning her tile grout. Zefanya, a mum-of-two, revealed how the cult item transformed her floors, leaving the grout sparkling clean.

I ordered a Chinese takeaway last night and as I was driving home I heard the bags rustling and moving!
I thought what the hell is that?''
Has something gotten in the bag trying to eat my supper.... I thought I could see a little pair of eyes peering out at me..

The fastest two legged land animal is in fact the Ostrich! It isn’t uncommon for an Ostrich to clock speeds around 70km per hour, meaning it will outrun cars in most places. Wouldn’t it be funny to see one of these guys set off a speed camera eh?
