Get your shoes sparkling clean with this game-changing 20c cleaning product
- Replies 0
Don’t you just hate it when your shoes get dirty?
A little scuff here and there isn’t such a big deal when it comes to shoes but there always comes a point when you look down and admit: ‘Well these really need a proper wash.’
And so you take out your shoe-cleaning supplies and scrub your shoes… but you notice there are spots where the dirt just won’t go away.
But what if we told you there was a way to get your shoes squeaky clean without having to put in too much work? And what if this method only cost 20 cents?
Sounds too good to be true, right?
Well, believe it or not, this magic solution really does exist – and it comes in the form of a small cleaning eraser!
Queenie Tan, a financial guru famous on TikTok, shared her amazing find in a post.
‘This 20-cent eraser will clean your shoes like magic.’ she said, showing her scrubbing a shoe’s side with a Spiffy brand Small Job Cleaning Eraser.
‘All you need to do is put it under water, and squeeze out the excess — no chemicals needed!’
After squeezing the water out of the sponge in the video, she quickly wiped the dirt off of the shoe.
We have to admit, the sponge did take much of the dirt away in the video!
‘You can buy these at major grocery shops and $2 shops.’ she said.
‘This little sponge thing changed my life… they’re too good not to share.’
As proof she really enjoyed using the product, she even made a short skit trying it out on her boyfriend’s face! You won’t believe what happened though…
Meanwhile, hundreds of users approved of her demonstration.
One wrote: ‘I’ve used these to remove scratches from my car as well, they work for everything.’
We'd like to point out though that there are warnings against using similar products to treat car scratches.
Another learned something from Queenie’s post.
‘Oh my God, I didn’t know you put water on it,’ a second user said with a facepalm emoji.
If you’re curious about Queenie’s eraser, also known as a magic eraser, different versions of it are available on various websites, including Woolies!

Other users from TikTok also shared uses for magic erasers like Queenie.
Neat Caroline, another TikTok personality who frequently shares home cleaning and organising hacks, used a magic eraser to clean coffee and tea stains off her mug, to wipe the grime off of her shower curtain, and to remove a stubborn adhesive left on the bottom of a kitchen device.
Bonus: there’s also a cat in her video!
Though, some users noted that magic erasers tend to crumble with repeated use, so keep that in mind if ever you buy one.
So next time you're doing some spring cleaning around the house (or any other time of year), make sure you pick up a pack or two of these handy little sponges.
Your wallet –and your sore back– will thank you!
