For the germaphobe in me, the most impressive thing about this cleaner is that it kills 99.9% of common household germs. It also happens to appeal to my frugal heart, at $3.99 (suggested retail price) for 240 dispenses. That is a fantastic deal compared to many one-use wipe products on the market!
Best of all, to kick things off I am giving ten (10) lucky readers a sample of both varieties!
