Fun fact: the story of Cinderella was written in 1697, which is about 326 years ago. Now, it only makes sense that she didn't have to deal with things like loadshedding back then, because she didn't have electricity anyway. Even her fairy godmother probably didn't know such a thing existed, which is why she preferred to spend her time turning tatty dresses into ballgowns and pumpkins into carriages.
If they had had electricity, though, ol' Cindy's job would have been that much easier. Instead of using some crummy old mop and bucket to clean up after her evil step family, she could just have used a handheld vacuum cleaner like our deal on this one from BLACK+DECKER.
Welcome to the future, where old fashioned cleaning methods really do belong in books from 326 years ago!
PS: MERRY KRISMIS!
