why you should NOT buy the cheap bucket.

I thought that I was being THRIFTY a few months back when I scored a mop bucket for less then $5.00 at the local Walmart by our house. But apparently my determination for finding a bargan back fired on me.

Just about 15 minutes ago I figured out why.

See photo below.

poor bucket, it had a good life.

Granted the floor is REALLY CLEAN now (and so is the floor underneath the refrigerator, dishwasher AND wine cooler) and I have nothing to complain about except that my pants and legs and feet now has that awesome Murphy’s Oil Soap smell.

From now on I am using that trusty 5 gallon paint bucket that they sell at The Home Depot. At least I know that I’d hurt myself carrying the darn thing before it breaks on me.
