Dissed By Dyson Contest
Sadly, there was no congratulatory e-mail in my inbox today telling me that I was the lucky winner of the contest for a Dyson DC25.
Even though it is obvious that my love and need for one clearly dictate that I should have one.
To those of you who have suggested I just go and buy one already, that is really nice. But there’s this little matter of FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS for me to eclipse before I can do that.
Suffice it to say that the money is needed elsewhere much more greatly than it is needed to fund The Suck I Dream To Own. (No, not that home liposuction kit, the Dyson. Stay on track.)
If anyone feels like sending me one, I’ll happily give you my address. Even if it means you might come here and kill us all in our sleep.
I mean, it’s a chance at getting the Dyson, right?
I do have some good news, though.
Looks like our POS Vacuum was merely having a bout of User Error Disorder.
I fished dug excavated this crap out of it the other day:

Looks like I’m the POS.
*let it be noted, however, that our vacuum is still a POS. And someone should still bewstow a Dyson DC25 upon me.

Dude, it worked for playgroupie … they’re sending her a camera!
You should beg & plead and maybe even email Dyson directly… review on SarcasticMom.com is deffo worth more than a Dyson!

Unrequited Dyson love is obviously a love so deep, and so vast, it transcends the seas. I, too am a sufferer, here in Australia. So if, perchance you receive an influx of free Dysons, please think of me, and send one the hell over!

I have a Dyson, but it’s one of the toy Dysons for kids… damn thing should work like a Dyson for how much it cost!

I like Dyson. BUT my love goes to the Miele. I just love love love my Miele with a passion that goes beyond words.
I even named him. His name is Percy. He is little and blue. And really, really sucks. (in the good way). He costs about as much as the Dyson, he is just better made.

Ahhh To get a vacuum that actually sucks…esp when you have a shedding golden retriever and two kids. It would be so nice! I actually went to a local store and “test drove” several models of the much desired dyson. I have to say that I didn’t like the ball as much as I thought I would…I’m instead in love with the DC17. Ahhh How I want thee! So, I have to agree with Suze above!!!
May we all be blessed with glorious sucking tools!

My dog sheds her body weight in fur every ..single.. solitary ..doggone ..friggin day… I one day aspire to own a vacuum that actually works at sucking up the hair… rather than just pushing / blowing it around the room.

So…..you want a Dyson?? I had to convice/brain wash my DH into getting one. He searched Craigs List until he found one for only…..$200!!! Yes…it is nice and I’m pretty pleased with it, except for the corners. But I will keep it!!! I hope you can find one there on CL……esp in this economy you never know what you will find. Good luck!!

I think I saw the image of the Virgin Mary in your lint. If that’s the case, you can use THAT to make a fortune!!!

Perhaps if you excavated the crap more often the POS would suck more? Like a Dyson? Just sayin’

Our vaccuum cleaner is a 50 year old Electrolux we stole from… ahem… let’s just say “someone’s dead relative”.
I love it.
That being said, I almost threw the damn thing away about two months ago because it was “clearly not working anymore you stupid piece of CRAP.”
And then I pulled out a wad about twice the size of my fist out of the hose. Heh.

Target has DC07′s in a lovely shade of Target Red on clearance for about $300. Of course, its still $300.
I bought my DC07 on clearance from Target a few years ago- it was the Komen for the Cure pink version and it went on clearance after Breast Cancer Awareness month (October, of course) ended.
(A pink Dyson- gotta love it!)
So keep your eyes peeled come the first week of November. Of course, my husband says nothing is more emasculating than a pink vacuum cleaner, so you might be doing all the vacuuming yourself, but you’ll be using your lovely Dyson, so you won’t mind, right?!
Lou Lohman
EEEEWWWWW. That’s disgusting! Show me baby poop anytime – but not THAT stuff. rolf. And I DON’T mean rolling on the floor laughing.
I think you owe me a picture of THE RACK to settle my stomach and just make me feel better.

I feel your pain.
I have been dysonless
I now have a dyson
It is much better to be WITH a dyson then WITHOUT.
But, sorry I am not sending you mine!

Do you have a Kohl’s charge? They carry Dysons and *sometimes* are on sale. If you can combine that with one of those nifty 20-30% off deals they offer for cardholders, you can get that $500 beauty for *much* cheaper. (And I checked – they have Kohls stores in your area. I think.)

I need to clean out my vacuum. I want a Dyson too. Maybe they will send us both one to blog about so my five reader can see what I think.

I recently excavated a pile of hair from my bathroom sink drain that looked a whole lot like your pile there. I was so excited. I took it and showed it to my husband and tried to show my son who threatened to kill me if I did. Geez! What a spoil sport.

I must tell you that I heard a big DYSON secret from a friend. She is getting one through a friend that works at Bed Bath & Beyond because apparently Dyson does promos for store employees by selling them at cost so they will push more of them. So all you need is like $250 and a friend that works at BB&B or perhaps even another retailer … just wanted to share as I am trying to work this angle myself!

9 times outta 10 it is the owners fault when a vaccum stops working. Don’t ask me how I know. I just know a pair of scissors and emptying out things, pulling a few things out and investing in a new filter or two does wonders. I am just guessing, I wouldnt like be ready to throw a vaccum out because it is just supposed to maintain itself! HEE!
(( OK. That was so me, last year.
))
We all have our dream tools. Mine is in the Xandria collection but I suppose a Dyson would be nice too!
HEE!!

Oh man, I feel your pain. I want a Dyson so bad, but I can’t bring myself to spend the money. Love the hairball – that is what our vaccuum mess looks like after it sucks up all the hair that mysteriously falls off of my head. Ick.

ha ha ha!
I’d love a dyson too, but instead have a cheap imitation. I whinged about how it didn’t work properly, then was promptly told by my partner that I needed to empty the rubbish out then shake the filter a little to unclog it, otherwise it wont suck.
I have failed my housewife duties.

THIS is what I think you should do. A paypal donation button. That way, the people that REALLY love you, will donate. Even $5 here and there. It will eventually add up. Then you can have Dyson love.
DO IT.
K8spade
Want to borrow mine? Just pay for the shipping — I’m sure it’s cheaper than buying the Dyson. I’m not sure how we afforded it. I think my husband sold a testicle to get ours, but I’m not sure since he won’t let me touch him. Hmmm…….

Yeah, I can see why that old vacuum might be working better now. Can’t blame you for wanting a Dyson though. I am right there with you!

You must consider plasma donation. Or kidney donation. Totally worth it.
