This blog contains a number of simple money saving solutions I have discovered to potentially expensive repairs or replacements. For Example: Cleaning of the shower mould using domestos grot buster saved me hundreds of pounds, and the fact that it keeps the mould out of the caulk saves me hours of additional cleaning.

How To Restore Your Hand Made Chewed Up Plastic Dog Toys
In my last video:

So The Toys Will Last A very Long Time - No More Need To Buy New Replacements.
#fixed1tMONEYSAVINGtips
It doesn't take our two sight hounds long to start chewing up new toys they can destroy shop bought toys in a matter of days leaving the bits scattered all over the house.
As you can see below they have already given the figure of eight I made

a good chewing.
But as you saw in the above video, its easy to revitalise so the toys just go on working. If you do end up throwing some of the badly chewed bits after, either deliberately or by vacuuming them up, then just add a few more Polymorph beads to the hot what to make up for the loss.
